Spring weather is here in Missouri, and with it comes the potential for severe storms and tornadoes. Please take a moment to review the linked information about our FEMA Tornado Safe Room, which is available year-round on the district website.
The FEMA Safe Room is opened during a Tornado Warning for residents who live within the designated Tornado Protection Zone (TPZ) shown on the linked map.
**Severe Weather Preparation:**
**🌦️ Tornado Watch** – Conditions are favorable for severe weather. Monitor weather updates and prepare.
• Gather medications
• Locate car keys
• Charge cell phones
• Review your family safety plan

**🌪️ Tornado Warning** – A tornado has been detected by radar or sighted. **Seek shelter immediately.**
• Go to a **basement, interior room, or The FEMA Safe Room if you live within the TPZ Zone

If you or someone in your household may need special assistance during severe weather (mobility concerns, medical alerts, service animals, etc.), please complete the Special Needs Form and return it to the Superintendent’s Office as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.
