SRP Action Spotlight: Shelter

Directive: "State hazard and safety strategy."

The Shelter action is used for environmental threats like severe weather or hazardous materials. Students and staff take specific protective measures based on the situation.

That wraps up our 6-week SRP series! By using clear language and practicing these 5 actions (Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter), TCAPS prioritizes safety every day. 💙
