Earthquake Preparedness Program for 2017-2018

Dear Parents,

Experts have determined that in the event of a major earthquake, schools may be responsible for their staff and students for up to three days. Thankfully, our school has an Earthquake Preparedness Program in place that we feel adequately protects our children both during and after a major earthquake, should the need arise. One component of this program is the onsite storage of food, water, first aid supplies, etc.

We strongly recommend each family provide additional personal items for their child, as listed below.

*****BAG COLLECTION DATES: AUGUST 30th

-SEPTEMBER 13th

*****

PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY – DO NOT PROVIDE EXTRA ITEMS

LABEL each bag with your child’s name, teacher name, and room number. The label MUST be placed INSIDE the bag and facing OUT so it can be read easily.

1. FOOD & PERSONAL ITEM BAG (one gallon size Ziploc bag) containing ONLY:

One (1) emergency Solar Blanket. They look like a small package of aluminum foil and are available

at most sporting goods stores, Target, or Walmart.

Six (6) small, non-perishable snacks that do not need a can opener. Granola bars, gummy

snacks, fruit roll-ups, etc. DO NOT SEND CHOCOLATE, CRACKERS OR CHIPS.

A note of encouragement and a family photo.

Any prescription medication your child might require. It must be in its original container/package.

The name and telephone number of an out-of-state relative or friend (many times local phones are

down, but long-distance calls can be made).

A label placed on the INSIDE of the bag, facing OUT, with your child’s name, teacher’s name, and room number.

********DO NOT SEND CHOCOLATE, CRACKERS, CHIPS OR OTHER CRUSHABLE OR PERISHABLE ITEMS.

********DO NOT SEND WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.

********DO NOT SEND BLANKETS OTHER THAN THE SOLAR BLANKET.

2. EXTRA CLOTHING BAG (one gallon size Ziploc bag) containing ONLY:

One (1) pair of underpants.

One (1) pair of long pants.

One (1) pair of shorts.

One (1) long-sleeved shirt.

One (1) short-sleeved shirt.

One (1) pair of socks.

A label on the INSIDE of the bag, facing OUT, with your child’s name, teacher’s name, and the room number.

PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY

Turn the bags in by the deadline. Late bags may not be accepted.

Use one gallon Ziploc bags. Do not use larger bags. Do not use grocery bags. Note: If you have trouble fitting the clothes into the bag try rolling them rather than folding them. If you are still experiencing problems closing the bag, try condensing it by wrapping it with electrical tape. If absolutely necessary, place clothing into a 2 gallon Ziploc bag.

Do not provide additional items that have not been requested.

Label your child’s bag correctly. A lost bag will not help your child.

Do not tape the bags together. Food and clothing bags will be stored separately.

DO NOT SEND CHOCOLATE, CRACKERS, CHIPS OR OTHER CRUSHABLE OR PERISHABLE ITEMS.

DO NOT SEND WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.

If you need additional help, our former chairs have put together an instructional slideshow at

http://www.balboaparents.org/earthquake-kits.html

Please know you are not required to provide these bags, but we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you do so. In an event they are needed, these additional supplies will help keep your child warm, fed, and as comfortable as possible.

***BAG COLLECTION DATES: AUGUST 30th

- SEPTEMBER 13th

***

PLEASE SEND THE BAGS IN DURING THE ABOVE DATES.

Wednesday, SEPTEMBER 13TH IS THE FINAL DATE!

At Balboa Magnet, we are secure in the knowledge our children have been instructed in the procedures to follow during and after an earthquake. Here are some of the things you can do at home to help ensure your family’s safety:

Make sure more than one person in your home knows when and how to shut off the water, power, and gas.

Have a source of fresh water. If possible, store bottled water and replace it every 6 months. Swimming pool water should be considered contaminated. You may also fill up bathtubs immediately following a disaster because the water pipes have yet to be potentially contaminated.

Have a first aid kit available. Have as many family members take first aid classes through the Red Cross, YMCA, or a local hospital.

If you wear high heeled shoes often, keep a pair of tennis shoes in the trunk of your car. You might also want to keep a first aid kit, toilet paper, and some non-perishable snacks and water in your trunk as well. A small backpack can keep everything tidy and handy.

Thank you for helping to ensure the safety, comfort, and well being of your child. These supplies will hopefully not be seen again until we return them back to you in June.

Respectfully,

Kelly Skorupski and Valerie Rodarte

Earthquake Preparedness Program for 2017-2018

Dear Parents,

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

We need volunteers on Thursday, September 14th from 8:30 am until completion to help collect the earthquake bags from each of our 27 classrooms. In addition to this, we will be checking

each teacher’s individual classroom earthquake supply duffle bag and replenishing any needed items.

This is a BIG job that can easily be turned small with enough people!

You can sign up to volunteer at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/508084cafac23a5fd0-earthquake. If you have any questions, please contact Valerie Rodarte at (818) 943-6254.
