Disaster Preparedness Information for Parents
Nesbit School has plans for responding to emergency situations such as earthquakes, chemical spills, power failures, fires, civil disturbances, and any other event that interrupts regular school activity.
Should an emergency occur, the safety of students is our primary objective. We ask your help in following the guidelines listed below.
1. No student will be dismissed from school unless a parent (or individual previously designated by a parent) comes to school for him/her.
2. No student will be allowed to leave school with any person, even a relative or babysitter, unless that particular person is listed on the student's emergency card. Please make sure that your child's emergency card always has current information.
3. Do not call the school. We must have the lines open for emergency calls. Also, we may not be in the office if we have had to evacuate the building.
4. If we need to contact you about the situation at school, PTA will initiate a phone tree.
5. As soon as possible, come to school to pick up your child and any other children for whom you are the emergency card designee.
6. Park on the streets. Leave the driveway and parking areas clear for emergency vehicles.
7. If there is a need to evacuate, we would be at St. Mark's Church, 325 Marine View Way or at Central Elementary School, 525 Middle Road.
8. Remain calm. We will stay with your child(ren) and keep them safe for however long it takes to reunite them with you.
**If you would like to review our complete Emergency Response Plan, it is available in the office.
Parents will be asked to supply a non-perishable snack for their child's emergency kit.
