Policy: EBC
Crisis Prevention and Response
The Board recognizes that schools are subject to a number
of potentially dangerous events, such as natural disasters,
industrial accidents, acts of terrorism, and other violent
events. No school is immune from these events no matter the
size or location. The Board is committed to the prevention
of these events, to the extent possible, in the school and
at school-sponsored activities.
The Superintendent shall establish an advisory committee to
develop a Crisis Prevention and Response Plan. Board Policy
EBCA and Appendix EBCA-R contain provisions relative to Emergency
Response Plans. The committee will review school district
programs and activities, assess the district’s security
and safety needs, and review Board policies, administrative
regulations, response plans, and procedures.
The Superintendent will develop an administrative regulation
that ensures the effective development and implementation
of the district’s plan.
