| Arrival and Drop Off Parking Lot Reminder:
We understand that it’s hard to navigate our parking lot situation at arrival and dismissal. We appreciate everyone The lane along the right side of the circular drive is for parents who are picking up their students by car. Please do not park and leave your car unattended in this lane. You may park and wait in your in this lane but when dismissal starts, be ready to move your car along in the line. Unattended cars will create traffic jams as well as safety issues, so if you are in the righthand lane, please stay in your car to be able to move forward once dismissal begins. See the following video on how to park at district office next door: |
到达和还车停车场提醒：
环形车道右侧的车道供开车接学生的家长使用。请不要在无人看管的情况下将车辆停放在该车道上。您可以在这条车道上停车并等待，但当下课开始时，请准备好沿着队列移动您的汽车。 无人看管的汽车会造成交通堵塞和安全问题，因此，如果您位于右侧车道，请留在车内，以便在下车开始后能够继续前进。 |

| February and March Drills:
In February we conducted a lockdown drill and practiced what we would do if there was an intruder in the building. Students learned about the importance of listening to school staff and following instructions quickly and quietly. We also practiced assessing our environment and making decisions to keep us safe. Please remember that a lockdown is considered a preventative measure and is not the same as an Active Threat. Please talk to your child about our drill today. Be sure to listen and let them lead the conversation. An important next step in your family preparedness might be to talk about how what your child learned in the drill can help them stay safe in other situations. For more information on talking to your child about school safety, you might want to visit the website https://www.mhanational.org/talking-kids-about-school-safety. In March, we will be conducting an earthquake drill and practicing what we would do if we were at school in the event of an earthquake. In the United States, the recommended actions to take in the event of an earthquake are Drop, Cover, and Hold On. Please talk with your student about preparing for emergencies and disasters such as earthquakes. Encourage them to talk about their concerns and express their feelings. Emphasize that even though sometimes things happen that we may not expect, there are lots of things we can do to help us stay safe. For more information on earthquakes and general preparedness, you might want to visit the Washington Emergency Management Division (https://mil.wa.gov/personal) or Great Washington ShakeOut (https://www.shakeout.org/washington/index.html) websites.

二月和三月演习：
二月份，我们进行了一次封锁演习，练习如果大楼内有入侵者我们会做什么。学生们了解了倾听学校工作人员的意见并快速、安静地遵循指示的重要性。我们还练习评估我们的环境并做出确保我们安全的决定。 请记住，锁定被视为一种预防措施，与主动威胁不同。 请与您的孩子谈论我们今天的演习。一定要倾听并让他们主导对话。家庭准备工作中重要的下一步可能是谈论您的孩子在演习中学到的知识如何帮助他们在其他情况下保持安全。 有关与您的孩子谈论学校安全的更多信息，您可能需要访问网站 https://www.mhanational.org/talking-kids-about-school-safety。 三月份，我们将进行地震演习，练习如果发生地震我们在学校会怎么做。 华盛顿州法律和贝尔维尤学区政策要求所有学校在学校上课期间每个日历月至少举行一次演习。3月，我们将进行地震演习，并练习在发生地震时我们在学校会做什么。 在美国，发生地震时建议采取的措施是“掉落”、“掩护”和“保持”。 请与您的学生讨论为地震等紧急情况和灾难做准备。鼓励他们谈论他们的担忧并表达他们的感受。强调，即使有时会发生我们可能意想不到的事情，我们也可以做很多事情来帮助我们保持安全。 有关地震和一般准备的更多信息，您可能需要访问华盛顿应急管理部 （ https://mil.wa.gov/personal） 或华盛顿大震荡 （ https://www.shakeout.org/washington/index.html） 网站。您可能还会发现 https://www.ready.gov/kids 网站很有帮助。 |
