Welcome to the Chester UFSD Preparedness Website For Families and Communities

Being prepared for emergencies is not only a requirement of the Federal and State, but is also taken very seriously by all of us at the Chester UFSD. We know how important preparedness is to every member of our community. We want this site to be your "go-to" resource for information about our communities. We will be constantly updating this website for "hot topics" in emergency planning and health and safety. We have worked with federal, state, county and local agencies to produce school emergency plans and we’ve been asked many questions about planning for families. This site has been created to help your family be better prepared. The Chester UFSD Ready-or-Not site presents an enormous range of useful and timely information. We urge you, your family, and your friends to browse this site, and to especially take advantage of the Personal & Family Emergency Preparedness form that is available to you through the “Create Your Plan” link on the upper right hand side of this page.

Two of the most important things you can do are to make certain your child’s school has up-to-date emergency contact information, and to periodically review with your child alternative arrangements you have made in case an emergency prevents you from being able at home. We will continue to support our greater community with programs and services like the Chester UFSD Ready-or-Not plan, and we encourage you to also get involved in community planning. Share this resource with your family, friends and neighbors. Let us know what you think about this service to our community.
