School Parent and Community Forums on School Safety and Emergency Planning

 

Parents, school safety, and school emergency planning 

 

School parent and community school safety and emergency preparedness training and facility community forum meetings.


Parents are integral part of school emergency planning.  Parent emergency communications and parent-student reunification elements are often the weakest part of school emergency / crisis plans.  Schools often need to reach out more proactively to parents in the school emergency planning process.

National School Safety and Security Services offers training and facilitated meeting services to help schools better reach out to parents on school emergency planning.

The goal is to provide parents with an overview of critical school emergency preparedness issues related to parents (parent-student reunification, role of parents in emergency, rumor control and management, etc.). Training and meeting sessions provide a brief overview of national trends and best practices in school safety. The purpose is put school safety and emergency planning in a balanced, rational, and practical context of understanding.

The majority of the session will allow parents and school-community members the opportunity to provide input on school safety issues, concerns, and areas of interest to them as a part of the emergency preparedness evaluation process, and most of all for future district planning and long-term sustainability. This allows for community input and provides the district with a visible presence with its school-community to demonstrate its proactive efforts with school safety and emergency preparedness efforts.

Meetings with district parent councils, individual building parent organizations, and school-community forum session formats can be held.
