Drills: Fire, Tornado, and Other Emergencies
What should students expect and do during fire, tornado, and other emergency drills?
Students, teachers, and other staff will participate in drills of emergency procedures. When the alarm is sounded, students should follow the direction of school staff quickly, quietly, and in an orderly manner. During the drill, order rather than speed shall be stressed. Defined instructions for vacating each room will be posted in each room, and students should familiarize themselves with these instructions.
Active Threat Exercises
Before LTS may conduct an active threat exercise, including an active shooter simulation, LTS shall comply with the notice requirements of Education Code § 37.1141(a)(1)-(3), including adequate notice of the exercise to students, parents, school staff, and first responder organizations that would likely respond in the event of a false report or alarm.
