    Jared McRae pretends to have a gash on his head during a mock earthquake drill at Argonaut Elementary School. The school staged the drill with fake injuries so that students and teachers could learn how to better handle emergencies at the school. Argonaut would become a community disaster relief center in the case of an emergency. For the first time since the school has done its annual emergency drill, firefighters, deputies and paramedics coached students and provided feedback afterward, instead of simply watching them.
