Chapter E - School Operations

Part 9.0 School Closures

Section 9.2 Mid-day Closures

Policy Statement:

If there is a need for an afternoon closure and we need to evacuate the school first we get the students to a safe place (for the flood it was to the playground) and for the electrical blackout it was to the classrooms) and the teachers stay with the class.  The instructors each take a letter out of the family directory (the registration cards the parents fill out each year) and call the family until they talk to someone to give them the message that the student needs to be picked up ASAP.  We do not rely on messages machines. The office staff mans a table where the parents can check out the students.  No student is checked out to someone not on the family registration card.
