Bomb Threat
KEY POINTS
What is a bomb?
Bombs can be made to
look
like
almost
anything. They can be
sophisticated or made
from
common
materials. Construction
of a bomb is only
limited to the ingenuity
and resources of the
bomb maker. Bombs
can
be
delivered,
thrown, or placed in
numerous ways. The
only thing certain about
bombs is that they can
explode.
Remember,
when searching for a
bomb beware of any
item
appearing
suspicious or out of

Weather Emergencies
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
Weather
Emergency
Emergency Weather Conditions
A
weather
emergency exists
whenever there is
a sighting of a
tornado in the area
of the school. This
condition
also
exists whenever
the local police
department
informs
the
administration that
there is a strong
possibility a severe
storm will occur or
occur or if severe
storm warnings are
posted.
14
The emergency weather monitor is on at all times
and immediately advises the school of any and all
severe weather conditions in the tri-county area.
During local emergencies, such as hurricanes or
tornado warnings, the school listens to the local
radio and TV stations for updates and remains in
constant contact with the South area office for
additional directives.
Tornado Procedures
Tornado drills are conducted at least once a year.
All children must be removed from the playground
and field areas and relocated to the main building
through the west entrance, along the second grade
corridor. Students in classrooms will move to the
interior walls and follow the procedures. The safest
areas are facing the interior walls of a building.
Most tornado deaths are caused by head injuries.
Therefore, children are taught the proper stance for
protecting themselves:
 Lie face down.
 Draw knees up under your body.
 Cover the back of your head with your
hands.
Civil Disturbance
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
This condition exists
whenever
an
unauthorized
person(s) comes onto
the school grounds
with the intent of
disrupting the orderly
operation of the
school. This means
classrooms
and
administrative areas.
This condition also
exists whenever large
groups of students
leave their assigned
areas,
in mass,
without
the
permission of the
school administration,
for the purpose of
disrupting the orderly
process of the school.
Code Red - Dangerous Emergency - is
used when a dangerous situation exists
inside or outside the building.
Administration will announce "Code Red"
over the school public address system.
Teachers should 15
immediately lock
classroom doors and keep all students in the
classroom.
Support
staff
and
paraprofessionals are to immediately report
to the closest room and remain. Students are
not to be released until a clearance is
announced over the PA. If necessary, police
will be notified by the SRO.
Student Sign In/Out
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
Written Plan,
Understood by
Everyone
Every
school
should have a
written student
sign out/in plan
that is understood
by
everyone
involved. On the
elementary and
middle
school
level, it should
include the name
of the person
signing the student
in/out of school.
Identification must
be requested by
the school when
appropriate. High
schools should
have a sign out/in
system that tracks
students attendance.
Sign-Out Policy
Parents must list the names of persons who
are allowed to pick up a child (children)
from school on the School emergency
information card. In order for a student to
leave school, he/she must be signed out in
the Sign-Out Book located in the school
office. No one is permitted to leave the
school without getting permission from office
personnel. Students will be released to
parents/guardians and the individuals who are
listed on the Emergency information card
only after proper photo identification has
been checked and verified. Once
identification is verified, the students are
called for by the office for early dismissal.
No child is dismissed after 2:15 p.m.
Sign-In Policy
If a student is returning to school or signing-in
late, they are signed in with the time of
entry. The child is then given a pass for
admittance to class. No students are allowed
late arrival after 10 am- without a doctor’s note.
Visitor/Intruder Controls
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
Restrict Access to
Building to
EVERYONE
The campus is monitored at all times by
administration, facilities service personnel,
support staff. Once17 school stars, all
visitors, students, parents, and the
community members are required to report
to the main office. Signs are posted around
the campus indicating all visitors must report
to the front office for a picture visitor’s i.d.
badge. If permitted to visit or remain on
campus, the visitor must sign in and wear a
visitor’s badge. All employees and school
volunteers wear ID badges as well. Anyone
without an ID badge is escorted to the office.
Visitors must report to the front office and
return the ID badge.
This may be one of
the most important
components of your
School
Emergency/Crisis plan
you
will
write.
Restricting access to
your building will
reduce unauthorized
persons from gaining
access
to
your
students and staff.
Once school starts, all
visitors,
students,
parents.
district
workers, and staff
members
should
report to a central
location...
clearly
marked where limited
access privileges are
granted or DENIED!
Security Cameras are monitored during
school operation hours. If any unauthorized
person enters the campus, the administration is
notified immediately and "Code Red' or
"Code Yellow" is called. Teachers will
immediately lock their doors and no children
will be allowed out of the classroom. If
necessary, the proper local and school
authorities will be notified.
Staff Supervision Assignments
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
Each security staff
member should be
given a specific
assigned area to
secure.
These
assignments should
be developed in
partnership
with
your security staff
and your SRO.
(The SRO should
not be given a
specific assignment,
but have campus wide
responsibilities. This
plan should include
what to do if
security
staff
members are absent
or unable to secure
their assigned areas.
There is constant supervision of all strategic points
inside and outside the Pompano Beach
Elementary . Supervision schedules designate staff
to certain locations for morning and afternoon
supervision.
Hallways are monitored by support staff, specials
staff, teachers, and paraprofessionals at time of
student traffic. Students must always have a pass to
be in the halls. Students travel from location to
location within the school with a buddy and a hall
pass at all times.
During lunch time, paraprofessionals are assigned
designated times of supervision in the cafeteria .
Administration and support staff monitor the
cafeteria on an intermittent basis. Concerns are
quickly addressed and support is provided when a
problem arises.
Classroom supervision is the responsibility of the
teachers assigned to the class. If a teacher must
leave his/her class for a short period of time,
coverage by another teacher or teacher's aide must
be provided.
Perimeter Control/Patrol
KEY POINTS
SCHOOL PLAN
Effective Security
Includes Limited
Campus
At times when the campus is closed to
limited access the administration and
designated Support staff will be posted at all
perimeter gates and school main entrances.
The Administration will determine the
limited access and will give the "Code
Security" out to all staff with walkie talkies.
Local authorities will communicate
information only to the administration. All
other personnel will assume the same posts
as during a bomb threat.
Your plan should
include
the
specific time and
procedures
by
which
your
campus
access
points will be
closed to "limited
access". This will
help channel all
traffic to a central
area for sign in as
well as restrict
"outsiders" from
being on other
parts of your
campus.
Ms. Cusmano will be responsible for student
sign out if this must be relocated out of the
main office. Ms. Cusmano will instruct the
Clerical personnel with the appropriate
information to communicate on phone calls.
Students with special needs will be the
responsibility of the ESE staff. The Head
Facilities Person will be available to work
with maintenance if the need arises.
