Standard Response Protocol and Standard Reunification Method
The 小猪视频 State Education Department (小猪视频) is committed to supporting school and district leaders in protecting the physical and emotional safety and well-being of ALL students and staff each day and into the future through collaborative efforts to ensure safe and supportive school settings where learning can occur. Our mission is to continuously improve and enhance school safety across 小猪视频 and to provide leadership and support, professional development, resources, and technical assistance, based on best practice information and research about national and statewide safety initiatives.
When a crisis occurs, a school鈥檚 ability to respond quickly and effectively will greatly impact the outcome in terms of protecting lives, property, and community wellbeing.听 Strategic thinking and planning efforts by school and district personnel before a potential crisis can make a difference when the unthinkable happens.
小猪视频鈥檚 Education Law 搂2801-a and Commissioner鈥檚 Regulations 搂155.17 include requirements that every public school, charter school, and BOCES school building develop and annually update a confidential Building-Level Emergency Response Plan (ERP) that includes, but is not limited to:
- Information about the school, key staff, floor plans, maps;
- Detailed response procedures for different types of emergency situations;
- Functional annexes that outline how the school will respond during an event that warrants an emergency response (Shelter, Hold, Evacuate, Secure Lockout, and Lockdown)[1].
Together
Based on input from the state and national practitioners and stakeholders from the education community; in partnership with national not-for-profit, The 鈥淚 Love U Guys鈥 Foundation, 小猪视频 has developed a 小猪视频-specific edition of the Standard Response Protocol (SRP) Operational Guidance and Standard Reunification Method (SRM) as an optional resource that 小猪视频 schools and districts may wish to incorporate into their building-level emergency response plans.听
These resources are aligned with Education Law 搂2801-a and Commissioner鈥檚 Regulations 搂155.17 regarding the development and adoption of Building-Level Emergency Response Plans and District-Wide School Safety Plans.听 小猪视频鈥檚 districts and schools may opt to implement these resources in consultation with their required emergency response teams and local law enforcement and other first responders.
We thank The 鈥淚 Love U Guys鈥 Foundation for bringing their passion, commitment, and resources to 小猪视频鈥檚 students, staff, and school buildings.听 We are also appreciative of the ongoing efforts of our federal partners to provide resources and technical assistance to schools across the nation. Of particular note, the US Department of Education鈥檚 Grants to States for Emergency Management (GSEM) grant has provided resources to 小猪视频 to provide training to schools, and the Readiness and Emergency Management for Schools (REMS) Technical Assistance Center鈥檚 materials and resources provided the foundation for this guide.
Note this resource was developed in spring 2024. This Toolkit was created based on the Standard Response Protocol K12 Guide created by The "I Love U Guys" Foundation. If you would like to download, view, or print this guide in full please click the button below.
