4446270-15621000Shelby County SchoolsCreating the School-Centered Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan A.IntroductionThis chapter is designed to provide a practical step-by-step approach to forming a Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan. It addresses issues from team formation through submission of the plan to the Superintendent’s office. The first step in creating the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan is forming the Multi-Hazard School Team. As introduced earlier, the team should represent the diverse training and expertise of the school community.After the team is formed, they should use the attached forms to create the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan. Next, the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team should conduct a presentation at a faculty/staff meeting to update the entire staff regarding Universal Emergency Procedures, Emergency Management Protocols, Emergency Management Team assignments, specific roles, etc. Finally, the team will submit a copy of the plan to the Office of Emergency Management. The Emergency Management staff will review the reports and document the completion of the plan for each school and report to the Superintendent and the State Department of Education.Using this guide as a starting point, each school and school support building is to establish a Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team and is to develop (or update) a School-Centered Emergency Management Plan to include:Clearly defined staff roles/responsibilities (a Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team, Incident Command System, etc.)Procedures for emergency evacuation, administering first aid, etc.Setting up a “Command Post”Establishing potential staging areasStudent accounting and release proceduresAssembly AreasGuidelines for communication with the mediaEstablishing primary and back-up methods for communication (within school, with Central Office, and with parents and community)Each Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan shall be updated yearly and submitted to the Office of Emergency Management, and shall reflect the actions required by all involved parties to minimize loss of life and injury to persons and property.The school principal is responsible for supervising, monitoring and organizing the development of the school emergency plan. Further, the principal is responsible for arranging a faculty/staff meeting within one month of the beginning of each school year to review the school’s plan and update staff regarding new procedures.B.Forming the Multi-Hazard Emergency School TeamThe school principal or facility director is responsible for overseeing the formation of the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team and is the designated leader. Certain positions in the school lend themselves to team membership. Those include: counselor, nurse, secretary, custodian, social worker, teachers in various specialty areas, cafeteria manager, school psychologist, staff with special knowledge or training, and staff in strategic locations in the building. Each of these individuals has unique knowledge in areas ranging from mental and physical health to students with special needs, and from access to building plans to knowledge of community resources.Depending on the size and needs of the school, an emergency team could have any number of staff ranging from approximately 6 to 12, depending on the size of the facility. Although these staff members make up the formal Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team, it should be made clear to all staff that each will have a role in the implementation of effective emergency management protocols, and each is responsible for addressing the immediate safety needs of students in their care.Suggested steps for Team formation:Principal/facility director communicates with all staff identifying specific needs, and requesting volunteers to serve on the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team (see Staff Skills Inventory).Principal/facility director or designee creates list of interested staff, making sure all major areas of need are addressed, including:Physical/medical needsEmotional/mental health needsStudents with special needsStaff from all areas of the building (different floors, wings, out-buildings, etc.)Staff with knowledge of transportation needsStaff with knowledge of the building floor plan, locks, etc.Staff with ability to convey information to the mediaStaff with knowledge of community resourcesA meeting is held with potential team members to discuss what will be expected for team membership.Principal/facility director or designee follows-up with all staff to update on Team formation, and to fill in areas where deficits exist (NOTE: Although an individual may seem “perfect” for a role, no one should be required to have a primary position on an emergency team if he/she does not feel capable of fulfilling his/her duties in time of need).An initial meeting is held to formally establish the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team, and to begin the process of developing the school’s Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan (using forms on the following pages).Conduct a formal presentation during a staff/faculty meeting at the beginning of each school year.Hold regular team meetings throughout the school year (every 1-2 months) to review protocols and ongoing issues as they arise (may include local, state or national issues that may affect the school).Set dates to conduct orientation, review and updates of plan.C.Checklist for Plan DevelopmentUnder the direction of the principal, each school is to complete the following according to its unique needs and circumstances.Have each team member become familiar with this Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan and Recovery Guide and other materials plete the following: Cover PageStaff Skills Inventory Multi-Hazard Emergency School Team Assignments Students Needing Special Assistance Staff Survey Needing Special AssistanceStudents and Staff Special Assistance: Master ListClassroom and Building “Hazard Hunt” All StaffClassroom and Building “Hazard Hunt” Master ListAssembly Area (outdoors)Emergency Walking/Transportation UpdateStudent Accounting and ReleaseOrientation and Training ScheduleDrill Schedule and LogCreate a Multi-Hazard Emergency Team “Toolbox or Go Kit” using checklist provided Adopt Visitor Screening Policy consistent with local board policyAdopt General Dismissal Procedures consistent with board policy Review the Multi-Hazard Emergency School Protocols (“Response” section); make necessary modifications for school-specific needs (using feedback from Staff Surveys and Emergency Team input, local or district phone numbers and titles, etc.) Each teacher should have their “Classroom Crisis Response Procedures” booklet with them at all times.Review and update Severe Weather Safe Area for each room of buildingReview and update Shelter in Place plan for each room of buildingEstablish a schedule and procedures for orientation, training, and practicing (suggestions for Orientation, Tabletop Exercise, Drill, Functional Exercise, Full-Scale Exercise found in the introduction of this guide)Submit the school’s plan to the Office of Emergency Management Practice the plan as scheduled, update the plan at least yearly1.Cover Page for School-Centered PlanEach school is responsible for creating and updating its Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan and Recovery Plan on a yearly basis. This cover page should accompany the school’s completed plan according to the guidelines established by the District Support Team. The school principal needs to sign this cover prior to submitting the plan to the central office.2018-2019Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan and Recovery Guide 184213560960Berclair Elementary School00Berclair Elementary SchoolSchool Name:-1428751016000034290005397500-447675222250Tornado Damage – School Gym & Classroom Bldg.00Tornado Damage – School Gym & Classroom Bldg.3752850103505Fire Damage – School Auditorium00Fire Damage – School Auditorium1476375105410001905000167005Earthquake Damage – School Library00Earthquake Damage – School LibraryPrincipal Signature 09/28/2018 Date Student/Staff/Count & Special Needs Chart Total #students# SPED (CDC)Students# wheel chairs (staff/students)# people with physical disabilities# people w/medicalconditions# teachers# custodial staff# office personnel & other admin. staffTotal of all people in your bldg.67130305456227442.Staff Skills Inventory for Multi-Hazard Emergency School PlanStaff: As part of the development of our Multi-Hazard Emergency School Plan, and in accordance with district policy, please complete the following survey and return to the administration office.

Berclair Elementary has a disaster plan. The Principal and staff are prepared to make prompt and responsible decisions in any situation that could threaten the safety of the students.The need to close a school and evacuate the students before the regularly scheduled closing time could arise from a relatively minor emergency such as a prolonged interruption of power or from a major event such as a fire, earthquake, or severe storm. At times, communication and/or transportation may be disrupted. In the event of a major disaster, information will be disseminated in a number of ways, including:Broadcast by the local radio and television stations.Cell phone and/or land linePublished in the local newspapers and, as possible, posted on the school website.SHELBY COUNTY SCHOOLS RELEASE POLICYNo student will be dismissed from school unless a parent (or individual designated by a parent) comes for him/her.No student will be allowed to leave with another person, even a relative or babysitter, unless we have written permission or that particular person is listed on the student’s Registration or Emergency Medical Release Form in our office and is able to identify him/herself. If the release information changes, remember to call or come by the school office and update changes.All parents or designated persons who come for students must sign out at the office or from the alternate release location which will be established in lower north section of the grassy field in front of the building. Signs will be posted if this alternate location is required.We are prepared to care for your student in emergency situations. If you are not able to reach the school, we will care for your student until you or a designated person arrives. We have a number of staff members with first aid training, and we will be in communication with local emergency services. We do ask for your help in the following ways:Do not call the school. It is essential that telephone lines are open for emergency calls.Stay tuned in to your radio and television for updated developments.Avoid traffic congestion at the school by not driving immediately to the school. The school access route and street entrance areas must remain clear for emergency vehicles.During the school year, your child will be trained in the necessary emergency procedures. He/she will learn how to react, where to assemble, and what to expect in an emergency situation. If you have any questions or comments about our emergency preparations, please call the school at 901-416-8800.Sincerely yours,Dr. Sam ShawSEE ATTACHMENT FOR OUTDOOR EVACUATION PLANSEE ATTACHEMENT FOR PHONE TREE ................
