Foothill School has an evacuation and emergency plan in case of disaster, such as fire, toxic gas, earthquake, explosion or other emergency situations. The school conducts monthly drills. In the event of a disaster, school personnel will remain at school for the safety of your children. Emergency food supplies are available for each child when school starts.

The District plans to notify parents of actions through local radio stations or through whatever means are possible. When electrical power and telephone communications are down, use your battery operated radio to hear relevant information on the following stations: 1610 (local), 810 (KGO), and 740 (KCBS).

The PTA provides parent support for safety programs, emergency preparedness, and students' health needs. If you have questions, please call the school.

In the event of a disaster, please:

• Do not drive to school to pick up your child until directed to do so, as traffic jams may obstruct emergency vehicles from getting through.

• Do not call the District Office (they will be coordinating across the District).
