Successful Evacuation
It is nice to be able to post about a day care center that did everything right when faced with a bomb threat. The director of a day care center in Jacksonville Beach arrived at work to find a note on her desk saying that there was a bomb in the school. Donna Jordan called the police, then evacuated the center.
Because she and the staff conduct monthly fire drills, the children thought it was a drill and no one became alarmed. While the police took their bomb-sniffing dog through the facility, Jordan took the younger children to a nearby bakery. "They thought they were on a field trip," Jordan said. Police found no bomb and are investigating the note.
