Policy 3432

STUDENTS 

Fire Drills

Students shall receive instruction so that in case of fire or sudden emergency they shall be able to leave their particular building in the shortest time possible and take other steps as the emergency demands without confusion or panic.  Exit drills shall be held as frequently as may be necessary to assure rapid and orderly evacuation of the building.

The superintendent is directed to develop emergency evacuation procedures for each building.  Emergency evacuation procedures must include instructing students in using alternative routes in order to exit a building in case of fire.
