| We have a relatively safe and worry-free life for natural disasters and crimes. Therefore, we are often not prepared. |
| It is a necessity to establish a system for the school, parents, and outside organizations. |
| 1) Natural disasters such as heavy rain, storm or tsunami may occur and kidnapping, terrorism or intruder to |
| the school campus may occur. In case special circumstance taken place, we are supposed to receive a notice |
| from the Consulate General of Japan. |
| To gather information regarding terrorist attack, we are always able to access to the web sites from Oahu Civil |
| Defense Agency ( www.scd.state.hi.us ) and /or the Consulate General of Japan ( www.honolulu.us.emb-japan.go.jp ). |
| 2) Educate students for these emergency situations. Faculty members must communicate well and must take care of |
| any incident as quickly as possible. |
| * When an emergency occurs, students may enter a state of panic. Faculty members must control |
| and calm down the students. |
| * Even if no information is available due to telephone trouble and so on, try to give students a secure and easy feeling. |
| 3) Using “Emergency Telephone Network” establish good communication between school and parents. |
| * Have an alternative plan for “the Emergency Telephone Network” in case one of the parents is not at home. |
| * Example of telephone communication is: “This is an emergency call from Rainbow Gakuen. |
| Please pick up your child at 2:45 p.m.” |
