niknotes:  The principal, Mrs. Doblar, sent home the following letter:
 
Dear Parents,
 
You may hear from your child this evening that our school held a fire drill and was visited by the fire department today.  I know that you, as an involved parent, would want to have the facts so you wouldn't worry.
 
This morning, construction workers were sawing concrete in the addition.  The school's air intake system drew the dust into Mrs. Walker's classroom, then into the hallway.  As a precaution, we evacuated the building.  The firemen came and, along with our maintenance department, reversed the air flow, clearing the dust in just a few minutes.  Mrs. Walker and four children who were in the room at the time were checked by emergency personnel to be sure that they were all right.  We contacted the parents of theses students so they would be aware of the incident and assured their child was fine.
 
I do not anticipate any further problems of this kind.  In the future, this type of construction work will not be done during the school day.  I do want to applaud our students and teachers who did a great job evacuating the building.  After this brief interruption, all of our students were able to go back to class and finish the school day.
 
Sincerely,
Cheryl Doblar
Principal
