Recent emergencies:
Plumbing: power outage a couple weeks ago affected the sewage pump and plumbing backed up.
A parent who owns a mobile restroom company generously loaned a trailer restroom for a day while plumbers were fixing the situation.
Earthquake and Tsunami response: the students and staff followed their protocols for earthquake and tsunami response last Thursday. A lot was learned in the experience, there were some bumps but no major issues. Lessons learned involved each teacher having a student list, not answering the phone, using the stop sign while crossing the highway. Fairly soon after evacuating the all-clear was given to return to school.
