As a parent, you may have asked, "What happens if there is an emergency at my child's school?"
Wa-Nee is committed to providing a safe and secure learning environment and plans are in place to prevent, prepare, respond, and recover from school emergencies.
Your role as a parent or guardian is important.
First, teach your children to respect authority and respect others. Being kind to one another is a foundation of school safety.
Second, be familiar with the Standard Response Protocol. The five icons found below help communicate the emergency and direct the response. It is especially important for you, as a parent, to know the difference between Secure and a Lockdown.
As soon as possible after some emergency situations, a message will be sent from the Wa-Nee Administration Office explaining the situation and giving direction to parents and/or guardians. Therefore, it is critical that you keep your email and phone numbers up-to-date with the school building via your Skyward Account.
Third and very important! If we have an incident that requires us to evacuate to another building or take extra caution when releasing students, we will require a process to be followed. It will be our priority to make sure all students are released to only eligible adults. View the Reunification Plan and be prepared to follow instructions sent by text, email, or voice alert during an emergency.
Students will only be released to only emergency contacts listed in your Skyward account. Adults listed as emergency contacts will be eligible if:· a reunification card is completed and submitted to designated school employees during the reunification process; and,· the eligible adult provides identification to school personnel.
Thank you for your assistance as we work toward emergency prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery. Please visit: www.iloveuguys.org or www.wanee.org for more information.
