How secure is the building?
The 16th Street J takes security concerns very seriously. We have a full-time Security Director on site and a trained Crisis Management Team. Our Security Director constantly monitors situations that would affect the safety and security of our children and makes plans accordingly. We will keep parents up-to-date when specific situations arise. We have evacuation and emergency response systems in place to best protect the students and staff in our program. We conduct periodic fire/evacuation/security drills for the entire building, including the Preschool. Please note that the way to enter the Q Street location is through the entrance on Q Street. Members must show their ID to enter the building and parents will be given a preschool ID card to show at the front desk. It is important that the doors to the Q Street entrance be securely closed behind you. If you have questions about these and other security systems in place, please contact us.
