E1110 - School Safety Plan District Responsibility

The District shall publish and periodically update a school safety plan in the form of an Emergency Procedure Manual. The manual will provide guidance to schools and departments so that they are able to develop customized emergency procedures that are specific to their sites.

The Emergency Procedure Manual will provide information to sites about how to respond to threats of injury or death, how to respond to severe weather conditions or other potential emergency situations, and how to access emergency assistance.

Risk Management will also provide technical assistance to sites as they develop and update their customized emergency plans and as they respond to specific situations.
Risk Management will further publish and periodically update a District–level Emergency Operations Plan which follows the principles of the Incident Command System (ICS) and the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The plan will be implemented and maintained with the knowledge and cooperation of local emergency responder organizations. Appropriate District personnel will be trained in applicable ICS courses.
