Crises
occur regardless of whether or not schools and districts have prepared for
them. They take the form of natural disasters like hurricanes,
floods, heavy snows, or chemical spills, and human-made ones like bomb threats, arson, kidnappings, shootings, etc. |

| Your school should have an Emergency or Crisis
Plan which consists of a checklist of procedures to follow. While each
event has different procedures, one common denominator in every plan is
the need to communicate or respond to the appropriate group(s) (i.e.,
police, faculty/staff, parents or guardians, media, etc.). In the
event that a crisis occurs, a prompt and effective response from school
personnel can reduce trauma, bring order to chaos, and can even be the
determining factor between life and death.
