FIRE DRILLS AND FIRES
All students, teachers, and other employees shall be instructed as to leaving the school building in an orderly and rapid manner.
Principals and teachers shall recognize that it is essential in any emergency to prevent panic by giving students clear direction and supervision. Teachers shall be prepared to select alternate exits and direct their classes to these exits in the event the designated escape route is blocked.
(cf. 6114 - Emergencies and Disaster Preparedness Plans)
A record shall be kept in the principal's office of each fire drill conducted.
In the event that fire is discovered in any part of the school, the fire department shall be called immediately after the signal is given to evacuate the building. Students and adults evacuate the building to outside assembly areas. Teachers shall ascertain that no student remains in the building. In outside assembly areas, teachers shall take roll, report missing students, and provide assistance to injured students.
If the fire is serious, students may be taken to an alternate location for protective custody until parents/guardians can pick them up or until they can be safely transported to their homes.
