Reunification Drill
2019-04-08 13:00 - 14:45
On April 8th, we will be holding our Reunification Drill, for which ALL parents and/or an Authorized Guardian are encouraged to attend. It will begin at 1pm.
Important notes:

There will be only ONE Entry Point (Check-in) and ONE Release Gate (Exit) to ensure that all students are accounted for. Staff will be on site to direct you where to go. Our primary Check-in entrance is on Fort Street, and the backup if there is an issue (i.e. downed Hydro pole, etc.) will be the Yates Street entrance. If it is raining, we will be releasing students from in the gym rather than the field.

Adults participating in the drill must bring a form of picture identification. Have this out and ready if you can to speed up the process. You will then be asked to sign and initial our release form to confirm who did the pick-up. This is crucial so that if more than one guardian comes, we will be able to tell them where the student went and with whom.

We hope to take less than one minute per person during Check in. Please remember that this is a new process for us as well, and we will move as quickly as we can. Your patience while in line is greatly appreciated. Staying calm so that students stay calm is extremely helpful.

We will NOT be releasing students without an adult, no matter their age, because in a real emergency, the path home may not be safe, the family home may be destroyed, injured people may be seen on the way home, or other distressing things. Your child’s physical and emotional well-being are of the utmost importance to us, and having an adult with them is crucial to ensuring this.

The Drill will end at 2:45pm. Any remaining students and parents may go home as usual at that time.

We thank you in advance for helping to make our emergency procedures more efficient and effective here at Central. J
