PROCEDURES You will hear over the PA “We are in a CODE BLACK!” Once you hear the code, please evacuate the classroom. Make sure that your students take their book bags with them. They do not need to pack them. As you leave, doors should be locked. All classrooms will be evacuated to the east side of the school. (Track, Basketball Courts, Softball Field, & behind Tennis Courts). Move your class as far from the building as possible.

PROCEDURES In the process of evacuation, look for and report any unusual or suspicious noises, devices, or disturbances to your nearest SAFE Team member. Do not touch anything that looks suspicious. Once your class is outside, in the safe area, take attendance to see if all students are present and accounted for.

EVACUATING THE FACILITY Once you get the information to evacuate the school grounds, please let your students know. As we are leaving the school grounds please make sure that your students are in a single file line and following the class in front of your class. Make sure that your students are not running, but they should be brisk walking. Not strolling.

ARRIVING AT PINE CREST The stadium will be divided up by grade levels. Please look for your grade level signs and listen to your grade level communication person (AP Guidance Counselor, or Security Specialist. That person will pass on any information to the grade level teachers that comes from the command center) Based on the number of students in each grade level for an elective class, the elective teachers will take their students to the grade level area based on their most students.

ARRIVING AT PINE CREST Once you have your students settled in their grade level area in the stadium, take attendance once again. If all students present, flag should be turned GREEN If a student is missing, flag should be RED. If a student is missing get that name to your grade level communication person.
