Emergency Procedure

Make sure that your school forms indicate anyone who can pick up your child in an emergency (friends, neighbors, etc.). No one--not even a relative or a babysitter--will be allowed to pick up your child unless they are listed on the student's white emergency card.
Ensure that you have informed these contacts that they are authorized to pick up your child.
If your child has any special medical conditions, get a Medic Alert bracelet for them to wear at ALL times (www.medicalert.org).

Tune to 530 (KNUT) on the AM dial of your radio.
Come to school as soon as possible to retrieve your child.
Park in a location near the school, but not in the school parking lot.
Go to the Student Check-Out Table in the front of the school by the flagpole to sign out your child.
If you are far away and desperately need an update, you can call the Attendance Line at 650-917-5454 (not the main or classroom numbers). If power and access are available, a general update will be recorded on the line.

Do NOT call the main school or classroom telephone numbers.
Do NOT park in the school parking lot because it could block emergency vehicles.
Do NOT attempt to retrieve your child without checking him or her out at the Student Check-out Table.
Do NOT go onto the field or blacktop areas.

Parents or designees should go to the Student Check-Out table in the front of the school by the flagpole and present identification.
Staff will compare identification to names on the emergency sheet filed with Almond by parents. Once verified, an aide will take a check-out card to the teacher or leader of the class out on the field.
Teacher on the field will verify check-out on their check-out log.
The child will return to the Student Check-Out station with the aide. The emergency card will be returned to the check-out station classroom folder. Please do not try to get your child from the field yourself.
Parent or designee signs the sign-out log. The child is dismissed.
