In the Event of a School Lockdown
What should parents do in the event of a lockdown?
Don’t Panic - There are a number of reasons that a school may have a lockdown. Sometimes we may have a stray animal. Police officers may be making an arrest in the area and are taking extra precautions or there is something we just do not want children to see. In all situations it is because we want to make sure that our students and staff members are safe.
How Do We Initiate a Lockdown?
The office will make an announcement that we are on a lockdown on the school PA system and handheld radios.
What Do You Do If You Are on Campus When a Lockdown is Announced?
· Everyone, parents and students, must follow the directions of the staff and go into the nearest locked room.
· Stay calm and listen to the staff. If you panic the children will panic. Help the teacher or staff member by following directions.
· If your child is already in a room, do not try to go be with your child or contact your child. Go directly to the nearest room.
· Silence your phone. DO NOT TRY TO CALL YOUR CHILD ON THE PHONE.
· If you are in a restroom, lock the door and remain quiet.
· Do not evacuate if the fire alarm goes off.
· Do not leave the room unless it is announced that it is all clear and safe to exit.
· If you hear from someone that the school is on a lockdown, do not try to text or call your child or call the school office.
What To Tell Your Child About School Lockdowns
When talking to your child about a school lockdown, do not approach the conversation in a scary context. Instead, be matter of fact. We teach children to wear seatbelts to increase their safety in the event of an automobile accident. We practice lockdowns so that our students are able to remain focused and respond appropriately to the situation.
· Reassure children that schools are safe and that the teachers and staff care about them.
· Remind your child to take the drills seriously.
· Remind your child to look to adults for directions. If the students are on the field the adults may need to take the students off campus and away from the school.
· Remind your child that if s/he is in the restroom to lock the door and stay quiet.
· Remind your child not to use his or her phone so they are listening to the directions of the teacher.
· Do not over talk about the topic.
Closing Suggestions
Beware of the news reports you are watching or listening to around children.
Beware of the social media your child is exposed.
