Paramount Safety & Emergency Protocols

Disaster Preparedness
Paramount School has a disaster plan in the event of an emergency situation. This is a district-wide program designed to provide temporary shelter and assistance to our students. Regular drills are held to assure that students and staff are aware of their roles in an emergency situation. During an actual emergency, gates will be locked and students will be released from the gate in front of the office.
To ensure an accurate account for every student and maintain their safety, we ask that you please adhere to the following procedures to pick-up your child in case of an emergency or disaster:- Arrive at school as soon as possible. To leave the parking lot clear for emergency vehicles, we ask that you please park your vehicle on the street and walk onto the campus.
- Go to the Main Gate in front of the school.
- Form one line. Please remember, other parents, are also there to pick-up their children. Show your ID and give the name of the child you are going to pick-up. Students will only be released to parents or designees listed on the emergency disaster card. Wait for your child in the waiting area. Your child will be escorted to the waiting area by a school employee. If your child is injured, you will be escorted to the First Aid Station.

Medication
Medication of any kind cannot be dispensed at school for any reason unless a completed form with written directions from a physician is on file in the school office. This includes aspirin, cough syrup, inhalers, or any other cold/flu remedies. Students are not permitted to carry medication of any kind to or from school.
