Dear Parents,
I apologize for sending this to you via email however, our copier is down and I wanted to be certain that you received this information today.
At 9:00 a.m. we evacuated the building due to the fact that smoke was detected in the cafeteria. I am so proud of our students and staff; we were out of the building in less than two minutes. The smoke smell was caused by the crew welding outside the cafeteria area. The smell got into the ventilation system. Our contractor assured me that as a practice, whenever welding is occurring on site, a second worker stands nearby with a fire extinguisher just in case it is ever needed. Emergency vehicles did respond and the children were evacuated. AT 9:30 a.m. the fire department gave us clearance and the children returned safely back to their classrooms. The fire department was very complimentary of our staff and students.
Please know that safety is always my number one priority.
Thank you for your continued support as we grow our beautiful new building. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Stacy S. Wagnon
