Although we may respond in a similar manner, it’s important for schools to understand that each type of shooting/threat event requires a different prevention strategy. Lockdown should not be the only choice you give your staff, but your school must have an Active Threat Plan that includes Lockdown as an option for when the highest threat level arises: when the threat is inside the building.
In the event of an active shooter, staff members are generally instructed to lock their classroom door and move students to a safe spot in the room. Albeit this has been shown to be an effective method for keeping students out of harm’s way, a lockdown is more than just simply locking the door.
Presented by Gary Sigrist, President & CEO of Safeguard Risk Solutions, this training will teach you how to enhance your school lockdowns and how to respond to both critical events and Active Threats.
Key takeaways:
- Learn that not all school shootings are Active Shooter Events. Schools need to understand each Active Threat requires a different prevention strategy
- Learn the two major priorities when responding to both critical events and Active Threats
- Learn different Levels of Response for events in their school
- Learn how the Three Outs give staff choices during an Active Threat
