Emergency Action Plan. Modesto Junior College has a comprehensive emergency plan. The children’s programs will practice evacuating the building each month along with one practice of gathering everyone inside. The evacuations are typically done around the arrival time. Realizing the importance of school being a “safe” place emotionally for children, we do NOT insert the word “fire” in our evacuation drill name; we just share that it is an evacuation drill where we practice leaving our building. Off-site evacuation location: In the event that our children’s programs needed to evacuate off campus, the off site location is Modesto Church of the Brethren on ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; the phone number is ▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇. Each semester we practice relocating to our off- site location; we use an MJC bus for transportation. Families are invited to attend this practice drill. A healthy snack is included in the cost and will be served each day. Our classroom practices intuitive eating where children eat when hungry and stop when full. They are encouraged but not forced to try different foods. The student teachers will offer various cooking experiences in addition to the daily snack. Please refrain from bringing food and drinks into our classrooms as we have children with food allergies. On some special occasions such as field trips and for classroom celebrations/activities, families are invited to bring food/drink. You will receive an email regarding the paperwork that is required. In addition to the required paperwork, please bring to the child development office (MJC, west campus, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, Office 157): • child’s most current immunization record • birth certificate • a complete change of clothing (i.e. shirt, pants, underwear, socks) for your child’s cubby that stays there each and every day, and mark all clothing with your child’s name with a permanent marker. • Diapers/pull ups and wipes • Families send an electronic picture of just the enrolled child (find one where the child looks content and happy) and another electronic picture of your child and his/her family. We want to be able to enlarge the pictures and laminate them for your child’s cubby, journal, and the classroom. We hope to accomplish this before the children arrive for their first day of school. • COMPLETED Physician’s Release: If you are not able to get a doctor’s appointment before the family orientation, please notify us of the appointment date and then turn in this form within 30 days of the child’s start date. The Physician’s Release form states your child is healthy and can attend school. You can access this form at: ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇.▇▇/Childdevelopment/Physician.pdf. • Reviewing child’s records: The Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing (DSS) has the authority to privately interview children or staff, and to inspect and view child or childcare records, without prior consent. • Updating information: It is the responsibility of the family to update health, emergency and/or certification paperwork. Your child may be excluded from attending the program for the following reasons: failure to complete the required health screening, failure to bring any medication or medical equipment needed per physician’s health screening, failure to submit a current immunization record and/or failure to complete re-certification paperwork (including, but not limited to, emergency locating forms, current class schedules, and current emergency cards) before the beginning of each semester.
