The spring weather and strong storms are upon us. Just wanted to remind everyone of our emergency policies. We practice our fire, tornado, and earthquake drills monthly, so our children know just what to do if there is an actual emergency. We do have a basement, so all our children will be downstairs in their "turtle" position if we have a tornado warning. Please know that your child is safe. If you want to come pick up your child or if you want to come weather the storm with us (if our facility is safer than your workplace or home), that is fine too. Just please use caution when choosing to drive to get your child. We do not want you to put yourself in harms way. If there were ever to be a real situation where our building was not safe (an actual fire or disaster), our "safe place" is across the street at Maxwell Elementary. The principal has agreed to allow us to use their building if ours was ever deemed unsafe after a natural disaster. I am ready for spring flowers and lets skip the severe showers!
