Monthly Safety Drill: Armed Intruder/Lockdown

Date: 12/13/2020

Subject: School Safety Monthly Report to School Board

The Chequamegon School District conducted a tabletop drill to validate the current emergency plans and Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for an ACTIVE SHOOTER and LOCKDOWN scenarios on Thursday, December 10, 2020 at both campuses with all students and staff. The exercise focused on the staff actions and increased student awareness of response options that will increase their safety.

Summary of Debrief from Staff and Principals

Strengths:

Materials
Drill plan
Length of drill

Areas for improvement:

More communication on the subject of school safety procedures
Keep practicing, add realism

Recommendations:

Add “all call numbers” to the phones, perhaps on a sticker
Have staff training in August regarding school safety to review Standard Operating Procedures on Active Shooter/Lockdown

Summary

The Armed Intruder/Lockdown drill provided an opportunity for staff to review and discuss the Standard Operating Procedures for Armed Intruder and Lockdowns. Because this was a tabletop format to maintain COVID19 safety protocols, the drill included between one and three additional scenarios with other variables that were age appropriate. Students and staff were able to consider more “what if” scenarios using this plan. All students completed a classroom debrief and staff completed a survey to provide administrators with suggestions for improvement. Key suggestions are listed above. The Park Falls Police Department observed the drill at the South Campus.

First graders in Mrs. Wolfe's class Mrs. Wolfe was following the decodable routine in the EL flex curriculum so kids can work on their targeted learning level. The progress monitoring tools helped with identifying each students level and with grouping the students for this work. This student was working on plural nouns ending in y/ies.	First graders in Mrs. Brad's class Using the same system, these students were working on multiple syllable words, long and short vowels, and sound consonant blends.
