This week in our Standard Response Protocol (SRP) series, we are reviewing the Evacuate action.
Directive: "To a location."
When it is safer outside than inside, such as during a fire alarm, an Evacuate action is ordered. Students and staff move in an orderly manner to a designated safe area.

This week’s SRP overview focuses on Lockdown.
Directive: "Locks, lights, out of sight."
Lockdown is called if there is an immediate threat inside the building. Doors are locked, lights are turned off, and everyone moves out of sight and remains quiet.
Our students and staff regularly practice Lockdown drills to respond quickly and calmly. Learn more at iloveuguys.org.

Directive: "Get inside. Lock the outside doors."
When there is a potential hazard outside the school, such as nearby police activity, we use SECURE. All exterior doors are locked, everyone stays inside, and normal activities continue inside the building.
