Crisis Plan Does Not Include
Plan was designed to:Augment other districts Emergency
Preparedness Plans.Ensure that districts comply with state and
federal mandates.Includes forms and checklists districts must fill out.
Provides districts with resources to create crisis plans.Head Start Emergency Preparedness Manual.
(p. 155)Practical Information on Crisis Planning. (p.
32)
Reasons For Exclusion’s
Amount of work needed to ensure compliance of all districts. Region 9 staff must be diligent in reaching
districts and ensuring proper forms are returned and attached.
Does not provide an action plan for a Region wide event. Region 9 could create a plan for a Regional
event or plan to help support districts in the event of a crisis.
Weak Points
I would use this plan a means to set up a Regional Crisis Management team. Districts could pool resources to help other in
need. For example:
Sending counselors or teachers to help other districts recover after a crisis.
Provide a written plan for cities and counties to support each other in case of a catastrophic event.
Creating groups of trained volunteers who are ready to help in case of an emergency in another county or district.
