Emergency Preparedness

The following instructions have been prepared by the Logan City School District Emergency Preparedness Committee, PTA, and school administration in preparing for emergencies, maintaining student and staff safety, and minimizing confusion and chaos.

In an emergency the school will:

• Respond as designated by the Emergency Plan and provide information through the Logan City School District and local radio stations.

• Care for students until it is safe for them to go home.

• Work with local agencies.

In an emergency the parents should:

• Tune in to local radio stations.

• Stay away from the school unless instructed otherwise by the district administration over the radio.

• Leave the phone lines open by not calling the school so that the school can manage the emergency.

Refer to the Logan City School Districts Emergency Response Plan.

In an emergency the students will:

• Stay with teachers and follow their instructions.

Additional information for parents:

• Emergency Supplies: Each classroom has an emergency kit provided by the district.

• Communications: Parents will be notified over local radio stations KVNU (610 AM) and KBLQ (92.9 FM). It is suggested that parents have a portable radio for emergencies.

• Buses: The principal will arrange for bus transportation where possible.

• Student Pick Up: Students will go home at the regular time and manner, if possible. Please don’t go to the school unless instructed over the radio to do so.

• Length of Student’s Stay at School: This depends on each emergency. Students will be cared for in the safest possible way.

• Other Agencies: The principal will work with other city agencies prior to and during the Parent emergency for training, planning and implementation. The appropriate community agencies have been involved in emergency preparedness planning and training. The principal will work with other city agencies during an emergency.
