Disaster Preparedness Kit Competition!

September is National Disaster Preparedness month and CJPS is on it! As part of the students' training for emergency preparedness, they were given a challenge to build their ideal disaster preparedness kit for a family of four in a "typical New England October." The kits were amazing! Special thanks to Mr. Cruickshank's dad of the Hamden CERT team, Staff Sgt. Allie Guerra of the CT Air National Guard, and CT State Trooper Tim Haroian for being our panel judges. At the end of the competition, the winning student (Apollo) had their dream $650 disaster kit PURCHASED for them courtesy of the Cruickshank Family. NICE JOB!
