As we head into our Thanksgiving break, I want to express my gratitude for all the support our parents and community members have given to Beach Haven School. We are very fortunate to have all of you to support our excellent teachers and staff as we continue to strive for excellence with your children.

Enjoy the time with family and friends, and remember fondly those no longer with us and those less fortunate worldwide.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM ALL OF US HERE AT BEACH HAVEN SCHOOL!

Regards,

• Make A Plan: Families may not be together if a disaster strikes, so it is important to create plans that outline how they will contact each other during an emergency.
• Build a Kit: Assemble emergency kits containing essential supplies like water, non-perishable food, first aid supplies, flashlights, batteries, and important documents. Ensure these kits are easily accessible and periodically updated.
• Ready Kids: Engage students in age-appropriate preparedness activities. Utilize FEMA’s “Ready Kids” resources to teach children about emergency planning.
• Pet Preparedness: Pets are important members of families too, so they need to be included when making a plan.
