FYI-LOCKOUT (Secure The Perimeter) VS. LOCKDOWN-
Recently we initiated a LOCKOUT when some strange activity in the area was reported to us. To prevent confusion and unnecessary escalation of critical events, LOCKOUT terminology will be replaced with SECURE.
According to the Standard Response Protocol used by the district the differentiation between Secure and Lockdown is a critical element. Secure recovers people from outside the building, secures the building perimeter and locks all exterior doors. This would be implemented when there is a threat or hazard outside of the building. Criminal activity, dangerous events in the community, or even a vicious dog
on the playground would be examples of a Secure response. While the Secure response encourages greater staff situational awareness, it allows for educational practices to continue with little classroom interruption or distraction.
Lockdown is a classroom-based protocol that requires
locking the classroom door, turning off the lights and placing students out of sight of any corridor windows. Student action during Lockdown is to remain quiet.
Be aware that situations can change quickly. Depending
on what’s happening, a Lockdown might change to a Secure condition, or the Secure condition can evolve to Lockdown.
For additional information please contact the school, and thank you for your support!
