For Students and Teachers. Student Safety. Shared Vocabulary and Expectations First Responders Students Staff
E N D
Student Safety Shared Vocabulary and Expectations First Responders Students Staff Schools across the country are adopting a universal standard to enhance student safety during an incident or emergency. This is an all hazard approach that can be implemented during any crisis. The key is that there is a simple, shared vocabulary between students staff and first responders. And when used, everyone involved shares expectations. We are adding these concepts to our current Emergency Response Plan.
SRP Standard Response Protocol It’s called the Standard Response Protocol. And it’s based on four actions that students and staff take during an incident.
Lockdown • Evacuate • Lockout • Shelter 4 Actions Standard Response Protocol
4 Directives Standard Response Protocol Lockout!Secure the Perimeter Lockdown! Locks, Lights, Out of Sight Evacuate! To the Stated Location Shelter! For Hazard using Method
Lockdown • Evacuate • Shelter Public Address Action and Directive is Repeated • Lockout! Secure the Perimeter • Lockout! Secure the Perimeter • Lockout
Lockout Secure the Perimeter! Used when a threat is outside the school • Let’s start with Lockout. • If there is a threat outside the building, then bring everyone in, and lock the outside doors. Usually, Lockout is called by district or law enforcement emergency dispatch. Sometimes, Lockout is called when staff or students notice something weird or strange. • Our previous definition of these actions was a Modified Lockdown.
Lockout Students: Return to inside of building Do business as usual • So students are instructed to come back into the building. • Students may be asked to go to their home rooms, the cafeteria, the gymnasium or the auditorium.
Lockout Teachers: Recover students and staff from outside building Teachers or Administration lock outside doors Increase situational awareness Take roll, account for students Do business as usual
Discussion: When might a Lockout occur? What is your role during a Lockout?
Discussion: What happens in a Lockout during class changes? Can we leave the school during a Lockout?
Lockdown Locks, Lights, Out of Sight! Used when there is a threat inside the building
Lockdown Students: Move away from corridor line of sight Maintain silence
Lockdown Teachers: Lock classroom door do not endanger yourself by locking outside doors. Lights out Move away from corridor line of sight Maintain silence Take roll, account for students You will not be contacted by email.
Discussion: What’s the difference between Lockout and Lockdown?
Lockdown Other Considerations When assessing your personal safety during a Lockdown, situations may arise where you have to make a decision. Fire alarms or other conditions may change how you respond.
Discussion: What if you’re outside? What if there’s no teacher? What if the fire alarm sounds?
Evacuate To Stated Location using Method Moving students in an orderly fashion Evacuate is how to move students in an orderly fashion from point A to point B. A fire drill is really... Evacuate Out of the Building. With the SRP Evacuate is always followed by a location. For instance:Evacuate to the Gym.Evacuate to the Gym

Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
