PreK-2 First Fire Drill of the year 8/22/22
Hello LCES Families,
We will be having our first fire drill of the school year tomorrow, August 23rd. As a school we work hard to prepare our students for any type of emergency that may arise. Part of this is to have a monthly fire drill where students evacuate the building to a safe location on the school grounds. Tomorrow will be your child’s first time doing this for the school year and for some, the first time ever. We ask that you please speak with your child tonight to let them know that this will be happening and that it is a great way to practice safety in our schools.
Some talking points might be:
- Talk to your child about the alarm they will hear. It is loud so that everyone can hear that they need to evacuate.
- Talk to your child about walking and not running to the safe spot with their teacher. It is important that we always remain calm when we are practicing our drills.
- Lastly, talk to your child about following directions. It is important that they are listening to the adults so that they can be safe.
Thank you so much for helping us make this first fire drill a success. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at any time.
Sincerely,
Katie Pongrekun
Principal LCES
