Today…we are planning for bad weather…April in Tornado Alley is like that…the
plan is to go to school as usual…and dismiss by 11:30…or sooner if the front moves in quicker than expected…for some outside of the area…it may seem like…overkill…but for those of us who have lived through years of destruction…it just plain makes sense…
Two years ago…an area school was destroyed by a series of F4/5 tornados that ripped through our communities…school had been dismissed earlier that morning…a few years back…a tornado hit a school in South Alabama…they weren’t so fortunate…the nurse from that school spoke at a conference I attended…what she went through broke my heart…I certainly hope to never experience such things…I refuse to even imagine digging through rubble looking for my students…but…I did make emergency preparations based on her recommendations…
I have a plan…
But…like a lot of things in life…I hope it’s a plan that I never have to implement…and…for once…Bertha…is in perfect agreement…
