This week our staff and students will be participating in the largest earthquake drill. Students will learn and practice the Drop, Cover and Hold On procedure. Afterwards we will evacuate the school building, implement rescue and reunification protocols. The drill is about 1 hour long so please have your child bring a towel to sit on and a book to read. We will debrief the earthquake drill at our next School Site Council meeting on October 20th.

At Providencia we are committed to addressing ways to create a safe, welcoming and supportive environment where all students, especially students of color and/or those who have been historically marginalized, are respected and valued. With our diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging efforts, we foster a school culture of inclusion, we celebrate our diversity, and students see themselves reflected in our curriculum.

DEIB provides us an opportunity to learn and recognize the contributions and accomplishments of historically marginalized groups. Throughout the month we’ll feature websites and book recommendations, local celebrations and resources.

Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging Displays

We are working on DEIB displays in our office and student hallway with artifacts and pictures of historical figures. If you would like to display an artifact (i.e. art, clothing, accessories, books) to represent any of the observances below, please label it with your child's name and bring it to school. We will return it at the end of our October observances. Thank you!
