If school is to be dismissed after the opening of school, the following procedures will be followed:

Arrangements should be made ahead of time by parents who will not be at home to inform their child of a place to go in the neighborhood in the event of an emergency. In an emergency or inclement weather, an announcement to that effect regarding early dismissal will be made on the previously listed stations. In any other emergency that indicates a significant safety risk to our students, students may be sent home immediately or to another designated school. Parents and students should have an emergency plan in the event of an emergency early dismissal.

EVACUATION OF BUILDING

Students will report to designated area where attendance will be taken. Students are to remain with their teacher until the recall is announced.

In case it is determined that more time is needed to search the building, school busses will be notified and students will be relocated to a designated school. The telephone number of appropriate relocation will be posted on the front door of the school building.
