Now that we are officially in hurricane season, we want to provide you with some resources that will help you in the event we experience a hurricane. See below for a list of resources that we compiled.

During this season, we want you to be prepared.


Although we are hoping for a hurricane-free season, we want our members to be prepared. Here you will find downloadable checklists and many services offered at Education First that will prevent further stress in the event of a hurricane evacuation.
