Quick Response ~ School Safety A~Z

A quick response is critical in school safety.  If  an an emergency is taking place, the sooner law enforcement or emergency personnel can get to the school, the better the outcome will be for safety of the children.  Time may seem like it is going by slowly, but seconds matter.  It can mean the difference between life and death.  Timing is very important, that is why schools practice lock down drills.  They also record the times involved for each step of the drill.  That way procedures can be reviewed and adjustments can be made if necessary.
