Fire

Fires are extremely dangerous and can spread very quickly. If you encounter a fire in your building, get out and away from the danger. Follow the directions of vocational school administrators.

• Confine the fire by closing doors of all unoccupied rooms as you exit.
• Activate the nearest fire alarm pull station.
• Evacuate the building at the nearest exit, go to the designated assembly area, and call the emergency number listed below.
• Do not enter the building until authorized to do so by school personnel.

Building Evacuation

An evacuation is implemented under conditions when it is no longer safe for vocational students, faculty, and staff to remain in a building or specific area within a building. This requires occupants to move out and away from a building to a designated assembly area of refuge, or out and away from a specific area within a building. An evacuation is most commonly used when there is a suspected fire or hazardous material spill in a building.

• When the fire alarm is activated, evacuation is mandatory.
• Notify occupants, and help those needing assistance in the immediate area.
• Activate the nearest fire alarm pull station.
• Take personal belongings (ID, keys, purses, wallets, etc.), and dress appropriately for the weather.
• Upon exiting, proceed to the assembly area to begin the accountability process.
• Persons with disabilities are to proceed to the area of assisted rescue.

Shelter in Place

Shelter in place is a procedure where an entire building population is moved to alternate locations. The purpose is to shelter occupants inside the building in the event of a weather emergency, release of hazardous or other harmful biological material, or any other emergent incident outside the building.

• When notified, either stay inside the building, or if outdoors, immediately go into the nearest building.
• Go to the designated shelter-in-place area within the building right away.
• Close all windows and doors.
• Await further instructions from school personnel.

Lockdown

Lockdown is a procedure used when there is an immediate threat to the building occupants. In the event of a lockdown, students, faculty, and staff would be instructed to secure themselves in the room they are in and not to leave until the situation has been resolved. This allows emergency responders to secure the students, faculty, and staff in place, address the immediate threat, render first aid if needed, and remove any innocent bystanders from immediate danger to an area of safe refuge.
