🎒 School Preparedness During Hurricane Season

A new school year also means it's time to prepare for hurricane season. Taking a few simple steps now can help keep your family safe if severe weather impacts our area.

📚 Talk with your child's school about its emergency procedures and how you'll receive updates.
📱 Make sure your contact information is current with your child's school.
🚌 Know your child's transportation plan and have a backup plan if schedules change.
👨‍👩‍👧 Create a family communication plan so everyone knows how to reconnect if you're separated.
🎒 Pack an emergency "go kit" for your child with any necessary medications, comfort items, and important contact information.
⚠️ Monitor trusted weather sources and be prepared for possible school schedule changes or closures.

Preparation starts before a storm is on the horizon. A little planning today can help your family respond with confidence tomorrow.
