During any emergency, our first and utmost priority is the safety and wellbeing of our students and staff.
To provide an effective response to any school crisis, the Division relies upon its Emergency Response Plan.
This Plan works in conjunction with other local emergency plans, since a school emergency could require the involvement of many agencies. The plans created for individual schools, along with the Division Plan, are reviewed annually and after an emergency occurs.
For security reasons, certain components of our emergency response plans are not publicly available; however, our just updated Guide for Parents and Legal Guardians (2023-2024) outlines the key elements of the Plan and answers questions that parents and legal guardians frequently ask regarding emergency preparedness.
During an emergency, information will be shared on our website homepage and social media accounts:
