October 2026 Newsletter
Happy October!
I am happy to say that all of our children have settled into school. Sounds of joyful learning fill our hallways daily. We are so grateful to be a part of your children’s lives. Thank you for trusting us during these formative years. Our BBQ was a huge success. It was wonderful seeing so many families in
attendance. Thank you to everyone who volunteered and helped things run smoothly. We hope you enjoyed the evening as much as we did!
Save the date for Trunk or Treat – October 23rd from 5 – 6:30 PM. Special thanks to 3’s dad, Jaison Pajaro for coordinating this special event for us! We are thrilled to host Trunk or Treat at 4CCN. We hope everyone will participate. Flyers are posted around the school and were sent home with your child with more information. The more cars the better, so scan the QR code and decorate your trunk! We will also be collecting non-perishable items for the church pantry the week of Trunk or Treat to assist families in need.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
PLANS FOR 4CCN
4 Corners Community Nursery’s philosophy is to always
keep your child{ren} safe when he/she is in our care.
We have developed an emergency plan that will be put into place if special circumstances require a
different type of care. Plans for these special types of care are reviewed annually. The 4CCN staff is
trained in the appropriate response and local emergency management is aware of these plans. The
specific type of emergency will guide where and what special care will be provided.
• SHELTER AT THE SITE: This plan would be put into place in the event of weather
emergency or unsafe outside conditions or threats. In this plan, children will be cared for
indoors with secured and locked doors. Parents will be notified if they need to pick up their child
before regular time.
• EVACUATION TO ANOTHER SITE: This plan would be put into place in the event that
is not safe for the children to remain at 4CCN. In this situation, staff has predetermined alternate
sites for care. The choice of the site is determined by the specific emergency and what would be
an appropriate site.
• METHOD TO CONTACT PARENTS: In the event of an emergency, parent will be
called, a note will be placed on the door, and radio/TV stations will be alerted to provide
more specific information. You can also check for information on our website www.4ccn.org.
Depending on the distance from the center, the children will walk if feasible or be transported to
the alternate site.
• EMERGENCY ENDS/REUNITING WITH CHILDREN: When the emergency
ends, parents will be informed and reunited with their children as soon as possible. The contact
methods listed above will be used to inform parents.
The purpose for sharing this information with you is not to cause worry, but to reassure you that
we are prepared to handle all types of emergencies in a way that will ensure the safety of your
child(ren). In the event of an actual emergency, please do not call 4CCN - it will be important to
keep the lines open. If you have questions regarding this information, talk with the director or your
child’s teacher.
