Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of events, participants will be able to: 쐍 recognize threats to school safety and develop strategies
to prevent and respond to situations;
쐍 identify school and community partners to develop and implement best practice strategies in school safety; 쐍 lead individuals in schools and communities to effectively
assess school crisis plans through table top exercises and other activities using technology via distance learning; 쐍 understand and recognize safe school strategies to identify
vulnerabilities using a multidisciplinary, all hazards assessment approach;
쐍 recognize Homeland Security and Safe School resources for school and community stakeholders;
쐍 identify school safety issues to address in crisis plans related to legislative initiatives.
Bring a Team of 5 to 7 People
We highly recommend each school or community sends a team of 5 to 7 people who bring their school’s current crisis preparedness plan. School Safety Legislation—Wisconsin Act 309—requires schools to have a multidisciplinary team collaborate to develop, review, train for, and practice drills related to your school safety plan.
Having a team composed of the people actually involved in your school crisis preparedness will enable you to get the most out of the activity-based learning projects. Planning sessions will include whole group discussions, real situation examples, and plenty of time for staff to work one-on-one with each team to review, develop, and evaluate its custom crisis preparedness and implementation plans.
