Safety Drill today at Memorial
December 15, 2017
Dear Memorial School Families,
I am writing to let you know that we practiced a lockdown drill at school this morning.
Students are very comfortable practicing drills that require them to exit a building quietly and
quickly (Fire Drills). We also practice drills that require them to stay quiet and safe inside a
building (Lockdown). Classroom teachers have reviewed this information with your child/children
in a calm and reassuring manner. Practicing these procedures makes everyone feel more confident
and comfortable. The entire drill was completed in approximately 10 minutes.
Should your child or you have questions and concerns about our safety procedures at Memorial
School, please feel free to contact me at 781-270-1721.

Note Required for a Change in Dismissal Plans:
In the interest of safety, on any day that a child’s routine transportation plans are altered, a note must be written and signed by a parent or guardian to the classroom teacher to describe the change. Occasionally an emergency situation arises during the day that necessitates a change. If such an emergency should arise and it is necessary to change your child’s transportation plans during the school day, please contact the office by phone (781-270-1721) before your child’s scheduled lunchtime to ensure that his or her teacher receives the information. (Do not call the teacher directly, or email requests, as these messages may not be received before the end of the day.) Please understand that due to the busy-ness of dismissal time and our concern about student safety, students can not be dismissed without your sending in a note to the teacher or notifying the office before students’ scheduled lunch time. Buses are held until all children are accounted for, impacting the timely departure of the buses and students’ arrival time at home. Thank you in advance for helping us to keep “Memorial Kids” safe by informing us of changes well before dismissal time.
Just a reminder from the nurse as we approach cold and flu season, please help us track illness trends at school by letting us know why your child is absent when you call.
