1 HHS Safety Plan Fire Drills A fire drill must be conducted monthly in elementary schools, four times a year in middle school, and twice a year in high school (see Education Code S32001). TEACHER CHECKLIST IN A FIRE DRILL [ ] Refer to the evacuation map in your classroom. If the room does not have a map, please contact the Principal today. [ ] Familiarize yourself with your class route before the drill begins. [ ] When the signal is given, have students form a single line outside the classroom. (Form a double line for large classes.) [ ] [ ] If a fire occurs during passing period or lunch, principal may instruct students to report to the assembly area. Students should line up according to previous period classroom numbers. [ ] Check to see that all students are out of the classroom; take your emergency bag and student roster and attendance cards and CLOSE ALL DOORS. Do NOT lock any doors. [ ] Place the placard on your door, GREEN side up if everyone has evacuated the room. If someone is left behind because they are missing/injured/ deceased, place the placard RED side up and write on it (with Sharpie pen) the number of adults/children and their location in the room. [ ] Have students walk QUIETLY in single file to the Assembly Area. Teachers should walk at the rear of the line. [ ] Ensure that each disabled student is partnered with his/her pre-designated staff buddy. [ ] Have students form a single line in the designated Assembly Area according to the class at the time the emergency occurred. [ ] Students in classrooms other than their own at the time the drill begins are to remain with that class until given permission to rejoin their class by both teachers. [ ] If students are between classes, at lunch or at PE, and are instructed to report to the Assembly Area, students should line up according to the previous classroom numbers. [ ] Take attendance from your student roster. Report the attendance to the Student/Staff Accounting Team. If the drill scenario includes injuries, report these to the First Aid/Medical Team. [ ] Activate the Teacher Buddy System. If you are assigned an emergency response team position, leave your class with your teacher Buddy and go to the Incident Command Post for instructions. [ ] Wait for All Clear signal, then return quickly to your classroom in a single file. ALL OTHER PERSONNEL Report to Assembly Area for further instructions.
2 HHS Safety Plan Earthquake Drills A drop procedure practice must be held at least once each school quarter in elementary schools and at least once a semester in secondary schools (Ed Code 35297). No advance warning or signal normally will be given. TEACHER CHECKLIST IN AN EARTHQUAKE DRILL [ ] If students are between classes or at lunch or PE, all students shall take immediate cover in the closest shelter available. [ ] Students in classrooms other than their own at the time the drill begins are to remain in that class until given permission to rejoin their class by both teachers. [ ] Students and teachers should drop to their knees, facing away from windows. [ ] Have students get under desks or tables where possible. [ ] Fold body onto floor with arms close to knees. [ ] Place head as far as is possible between knees; cover head with hands. [ ] Stay in this position until you receive instructions from the Incident Commander (e.g., Principal or designee). All Clear Orders to Evacuate [ ] Direct students to return to their seats. [ ] Have students quickly line up. [ ] Take your emergency bag, student roster and attendance cards. LEAVE DOORS OPEN. [ ] Place the GREEN side of the placard up if everyone has evacuated or the RED side up if someone is left behind (write on it the number of adults/ children and their location in the room). [ ] Have students walk QUIETLY in single file to the Assembly Area. [ ] If students are between classes, at lunch or at PE, and are instructed to report to the Assembly Area, line up according to the previous classroom nos. [ ] Take attendance. Report the attendance to the Student/Staff Accounting Team. If the drill scenario includes injuries, report these to the First Aid/Medical Team. [ ] Activate the Teacher Buddy System. If you are assigned an emergency response team position, leave your class with your teacher Buddy and go to the Incident Command Post for instructions. [ ] Wait for All Clear signal, then return quickly to your classroom in a single file. ALL OTHER PERSONNEL Remain in your office until you hear the All Clear. If the Incident Commander (i.e., principal) directs students and staff to evacuate instead of resuming classroom instruction and school operations, evacuate to your pre-designated Assembly Area and/or assume your assigned emergency response role.
3 HHS Safety Plan Lockdown Drills A Lockdown drill indicates that an emergency that requires students and staff to remain inside has occurred, such as an intruder-oncampus or a crime nearby. TEACHER CHECKLIST IN A LOCKDOWN DRILL [ ] When the announcement has been given, all classes will remain in their classrooms. [ ] Physical education classes will proceed into the gym. [ ] [ ] If the announcement is during passing period or lunch, students will be directed to go to the cafeteria or the closest open classroom, unless the principal announces other instructions. [ ] [ ] If the announcement is made before or after school, students will be directed to go into the closest open classroom, unless the principal announces other instructions. [ ] Lock all windows, exterior doors, and any other openings to the outside. [ ] Move students to the most protected areas of the room (e.g., away from windows and the possibility of broken glass). [ ] Instruct students to lie down on the floor. [ ] Close all windows. If possible, cover windows by lowering blinds, drawing curtains, or pulling shades. Turn off lights. [ ] Do not release students or staff for restrooms. [ ] Do not use radio, TV, walkie talkies, or cell phones in the classroom. [ ] Write down the names of everyone in the room. Report the attendance to the Student/Staff Accounting Team. If the drill scenario includes injuries, report these to the First Aid/Medical Team. [ ] Wait for All Clear signal before allowing children or staff out of the room or resuming classroom instruction. ALL OTHER PERSONNEL Remain in your office and close all doors (lock the doors in a real lockdown) unless you are designated Facility/Security staff. Wait for further instructions. Facility/Security staff report to the Incident Commander (e.g., Principal or designee) if safe to do so. Otherwise communicate by available means for instructions.
4 HHS Safety Plan Shelter-in-Place Drills Shelter-in-place" means to take immediate shelter usually for just a few hours, not days. Local authorities may instruct you to "shelter-in-place" if chemical or radiological contaminants are released into the environment. You will be allowed out when the air is clear again. TEACHER CHECKLIST IN A SHELTER-IN-PLACE DRILL When the announcement has been given, all classes will remain in their classrooms. Physical education classes will proceed into the gym. If the announcement is during passing period or lunch, students will be directed to go to the cafeteria or the closest open classroom, unless the principal announces other instructions. If the announcement is made before or after school, students will be directed to go into the closest open classroom, unless the principal announces other instructions. Lock all windows, exterior doors, and any other openings to the outside. If there is danger of explosion, make sure the window shades, blinds or curtains are closed. The Administration will turn off heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. If you have any independent systems in your classroom that provide for exchange of inside air with outside air, turn off those systems. If instructed by your Incident Commander (e.g., Principal or designee), use duct tape and plastic sheeting to seal all cracks around the door(s), windows and vents into the room. As much as possible, reduce the flow of air into the room. Write down the names of everyone in your classroom. Report the attendance to the Student/Staff Accounting Team. If the drill scenario includes injuries, report these to the First Aid/Medical Team. Wait for All Clear signal before allowing children or staff out of the room or resuming classroom instruction. ALL OTHER PERSONNEL Remain in your office and close the door unless your emergency response role is activated. Do NOT lock the doors. Wait for further instructions. ICS teams activated by the Incident Commander (e.g., Principal or designee) report to the Incident Commander.

5 HHS Safety Plan During an Incident General Considerations for School Employees All school staff should familiarize themselves with this Standardized Emergency Management System Plan and learn the roles assigned to them in the event of an emergency (Form ICS 203). School personnel should be mobilized or activated before joining the incident response. This typically will take place when the principal announces the situation over the intercom or by ringing a bell coded for an emergency. Unless you must take an immediate life-saving action, you should not start responding without being mobilized. The mobilization process improves safety and cuts down on unnecessary chaos. If you are mobilized in an emergency, follow the simple guidelines: Do not go around the chain of command. Only take direction from your immediate ICS supervisor (not your day-to-day supervisor). Report critical information about safety hazards, status, changing conditions/needs within assigned areas, and resource needs. Staff should utilize the General Checklist for Staff in Appendix C. If you are assigned an emergency role and are a teacher, make sure that your students are with your teacher buddy (see Form D) before checking into the Incident Command Post. After check-in, employees need to locate their incident supervisor and obtain an initial briefing. The briefings should include: Current assessment of the situation. Identification of your specific job responsibilities. Identification of coworkers. Location of work area. Identification of break areas, as appropriate. Procedural instructions for obtaining needed resources. Operational periods/work shifts. Required safety procedures and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), as appropriate. Resource demobilization occurs at the end of your assignment or when the incident is resolved. Before leaving an incident assignment, you should: Complete all tasks and required forms/reports. Brief replacements, subordinates, and supervisor. Evaluate the performance of subordinates.
6 HHS Safety Plan Follow check-out procedures. Return any incident-issued equipment or other nonexpendable supplies. Complete post-incident reports, time records or other accounting obligations School staff must be aware that they cannot leave campus without permission during an emergency situation unless they have the authorization of the Incident Commander (school principal), because of their responsibilities as disaster service workers (California Government Code, Chapter 8, Section 3100).
7 HHS Safety Plan The Incident Command System The Incident Command System (ICS) can be used to manage any of the following types of incidents: Disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, or other natural disasters. Disease outbreaks and prevention measures. Search operations for a missing student. Hazardous materials accidents in chemistry labs. Hostile intruders or other criminal acts. Planned events, such as school drills, festivals, sporting events, and graduations. ICS principles under the National Incident Management System (NIMS) are implemented through a wide range of management features including the use of common terminology and plain language, and a modular organizational structure. ICS Features Chain of Command Unity of Command Transfer of Command Manageable Span of Control Incident Action Plan ICS Features The Chain of Command is an orderly line of authority within the ranks of the ICS. The Chain of Command allows an incident manager to direct and control the actions of all personnel under his or her supervision, and avoids confusion by requiring that orders flow from supervisors. Under Unity of Command, personnel report only to ONE ICS supervisor, and only receive work assignments from their ICS supervisor. This means that if a staff member is reporting to the Facility Manager and receives direction from the principal, the staff member follow the direction of the Facility Manager. The process of moving the responsibility for incident command from one Incident Commander to another is called Transfer of Command. The Transfer of Command takes place when a more qualified person assumes command, the incident situation changes over time, or there is the normal turnover of personnel on long or extended incident. The transfer of command process always includes a transfer of command briefing, which may be oral, written, or a combination of both. Span of control is the number of individuals or resources that one supervisor can manage effectively during an incident. Effective span of control on incidents may vary from three to seven, and a ratio of one supervisor to five subordinates is recommended. Every incident must have an oral or written Incident Action Plan (see Form F in Appendix B) that specifies: The incident objectives The ICS roles activated and those responsible for them How the ICS staff communicates with one another IAP time frame Unified Command Procedures for dealing with the injured. If an incident requires the assistance of other agencies, such as law enforcement or the fire department, the National Incident Management System is used to coordinate multiple agency response. A Unified Command Emergency Operations Center will be set up, and the school site Incident Commander will join the agency Incident Commanders in forming a Unified Command. Thereafter, all incident decisions are made by the Unified Command. More info on the Unified Command follows.
8 HHS Safety Plan Summary of Immediate Response Actions SIUMMARY OF IMMEDIATE RESPONSE ACTIONS Action Purpose If inside If outside Other measures Duck and Cover Shelter in Place Lock Down Evacuate Building Off-Site Evacuation To protect students and staff from flying or falling debris. To keep students indoors as protection from airborne contaminants. To protect students and staff from threat of violence or gunfire To protect students and staff if it is unsafe to remain in bldg. Principal will initiate fire alarm. To protect students and staff when it is unsafe to remain on campus. Responses to Specific Types of Emergencies Teachers will instruct students to duck under their desks and cover their heads with their arms and hands. Teachers will keep students in the classroom until further instructions are given. Teachers will shut down air conditioning or heating systems in their room, and seal doors and windows. Teachers will instruct students to lie on the floor, away form windows, and will lock doors and close shades or blinds. Teachers will instruct students to evacuate to designated assembly areas, bring emergency supplies and staff roster Teachers will direct students to the off-site location, either walking or using transportation. If outside, teachers will instruct students to drop to the ground, place their heads between their knees, and cover their heads with their arms and hands. Students will proceed to their classrooms if it is safe to do so. If not, teachers or staff will direct students into nearby classrooms or school buildings. Students will proceed to their classrooms if it is safe to do so. If not, teachers or staff will direct students into nearby classrooms or school buildings. Principal will initiate fire alarm, and teachers will instruct students to evacuate. Principal will determine the safest method of evacuation (e.g., use of school buses or walking) Teachers and students should move away from windows. Teachers are responsible for securing individual classrooms. The Security/ Utilities Team will assist in shutting down the HVAC system if located outside and as needed. Teachers and students will remain in the classroom or secured area until given further instructions by Principal or police. Front entrance is to be locked. Teachers will take role in the assembly area and assume any buddy or other emergency tasks. Teachers will take student roster. Once assembled off-site, teachers will take role, assess injuries, and students will stay in place until instructions given. Checklists for initial responses to the following types of disasters and emergencies are on the following pages.

20 HHS Safety Plan Teachers: Do not panic. Remain calm and listen to instructions. Do not open hot doors. Before opening any door, touch it near the top to see if it is hot. Do not break windows - Oxygen feeds fires. During class When the fire evacuation signal is given, have students form a single line outside the classroom. (Form a double line for large classes.) If the students are in PE class, the teacher, or supervising adult, stops play and has students walk quietly to the assembly area. Students in PE or classrooms other than their own must remain with that class until both teachers give the student permission to rejoin his/her class. Check to see that all students are out of the classroom. Take your Roll Book, student attendance cards, pen and pencils. Close but DO NOT LOCK the door. Use pre-planned evacuation routes (refer to the posted evacuation map) if safe to do so; otherwise use the safest route. Have students walk QUIETLY single file to the assembly area. Teachers should walk the rear of the line. Have students form a single line in the designated assembly area. During lunch or recess Have students WALK to the assigned place on the yard where they meet their teacher before school. Have students wait in orderly and silent lines for their teacher, or other supervising adult, to conduct them to their proper assembly area.
