It is crucial to prepare for emergencies in your building. In an event that an emergency takes place, your leadership and organization will help others safely handle the situation. By creating a school emergency plan that considers all safety needs, threats, and hazards that can impact your school, you can have a safer school. An Emergency Operations Plan outlines how the school will respond to emergencies and develops a plan for faculty and personnel.
Important information to consider:
- Create a team for emergency planning with a variety of stakeholders
- Post emergency evacuation procedures(example below)
- Create emergency bags with supplies
- Contact the local police and fire department to collaborate/brainstorm plan ideas
- Practice on a regular basis with students and staff
