The fire alarm went off again today at the preschool. Teachers and students were evacuated to the elementary. Once again there was not a fire but was caused by construction concrete exhaust. We are working to fix the problem. Staying precautious to protect our children.

The fire alarm went off at the preschool this afternoon. The alarm was caused by concrete smoke and dust. All students and staff were evacuated because of the alarm but there wasn’t a fire. All is good, just precautionary.
