Purpose and Scope
Heir Force Community School’s Safe School Plan (SSP)
provides guidance and direction to principals, faculty and
staff who have emergency management responsibilities.
The SSP should be used during an emergency incident
involving a school facility.
Key Emergency Contact
It is imperative during an emergency to contact 911
followed by the principal and district office as quickly as
possible.
Emergency Response Team (ERT)
The school has an Emergency Response Team to take
charge of the emergency, respond effectively, protect the
occupants of the facility and reduce the risk of physical
injury, property damage and business interruption.
Incident Management System (IMS)
The Emergency Response Team will follow the basic
principle of IMS where one team member Incident
Commander (IC) is in charge of the emergency until
emergency responders arrive on the scene. At that point,
the Incident Commander IC will update the emergency
response IC on the incident and turn over the IC duties to
the external emergency response IC. The school IC
should remain in close contact with the external
emergency response IC until the incident is terminated.
The IC is responsible for command, control,
communications and coordination of resources during an
emergency event.
