Classroom Emergency Kits

*Collecting $1-$2 for Classroom Emergency Kits

As mentioned briefly in News Notes last week, and to comply with a  new school district mandate, each classroom at Alameda must have an emergency kit/bucket.  These kits will contain water, granola bars, toilet paper, a first aid kit, a flashlight, and batteries and could be used in the event of an extended lock down or other emergency situation.  In the event of an evacuation, the buckets could be transported out of the classroom if needed.

Each 4th grade classroom is collecting $1-$2 from each class member to help purchase items for the kits.  A 4th grade parent has agreed to buy the stuff for the kits, so all we need to do is contribute $1-$2 toward the purchase of the items.

Susan Hanson (Ella L's mom) is collecting the money for our classroom.  There is an envelope to collect the money.  Please put $1-$2 in the envelope by Friday, February 4th.  Write your child's name on the front of the envelope as you contribute. You can email Susan at sj.hanson@comcast.net if you have any questions.

 Thank you!
