practicing a school wide earthquake evacuation drill. At the start of the
period, there will be an announcement to signal the beginning of the earthquake
drill. You will then hear the sounds of a simulated earthquake broadcast over
the PA system for approximately 60 seconds.<span></span></span></p>

floor and take cover under a desk or table if possible; COVER their head and
neck with one arm; and HOLD onto the leg of a desk or table. After the
earthquake simulation, all classes will evacuate from buildings the same way we
would during a fire drill. Stay tuned for more information coming soon to all
