In this situation, two children pushed open the doors to the outside while the teacher was sitting with the group of children who were eating breakfast. The teacher saw the children exit the door and she immediately tried to stop them but couldn't reach them in time. They ran out to the playground but at no time were they out of her sight. The teacher immediately called the front desk while she was watching the children outside and the assistant director went out and retrieved the children within a matter of a few short minutes. At no time were the children out of someone's sight. We believe the teacher acted appropriately for this incident as she was trained to do. We self reported this incident. We added door alarms to every classroom door on the same day this incident occurred so that teachers are able to immediately hear any doors opening by an alarm sounding and are able to react quickly. We also conducted additional staff trainings in supervision at our 8/29 staff development day to ensure every staff member is aware of the correct procedure if this were to happen again.
