Dear Teachers:
There is no school on 10/11/2015 due to Clumbus Day, hope everybody have a relax weekend. The School will resum on 10/18/2015.
-Fire Drill
This past Sunday, we successfully finished our annual fire drill. Thanks a lot for all teaches/TAs for all of your hard work, led your classes out of the building quickly and orderly. The whole building was emptied less than five minutes which meets the requirements of Newton fire department. However, there are a couple of important things that need to be improved:
1. After all people exited the building, there are still a lot of people stood near the building doors instead of walking far away from building as quickly as possible, made the other people difficult to move out quickly.
2. The main entrance driveway is not clear. The majority of parents just stood on the main entrance (driveway) that will make other people difficult to move forward, and even worse, the fire trucks will be difficult to drive in.
The purpose of the fire drill is let everybody get familiar with the general emergence exit process, strengthen the urgent feeling, know where to go if something happens in the building. The safety of our community is always the school’s top priority.
