EMERGENCY PLANS

EMERGENCY PLANS                            6114

The Board recognizes the need for preparation and plans regarding actions to be taken before, during and after an emergency to minimize the effects of any disaster and to protect the lives of the students entrusted to its care. It realizes that schools may be used for temporary housing in case of catastrophe, including civil disorders.

The Board authorizes the Superintendent to develop and implement a school disaster plan that will provide as much protection as possible for students while at school and on their way to and from school, and to provide adequate instruction so that the school emergency plan may be carried out with the greatest possible speed and safety.
