Are Douglas County Schools prepared for disaster?
Douglas County schools have taken an active role in engaging their staff and students to respond appropriately to the sounding of outdoor warning sirens. Most schools in Douglas County have disaster plans and they train staff and conduct drills on a regular basis. We encourage parents to ask school officials about their emergency plans. These plans include the manner and methods that school officials inform staff, students and parents to threats of concern. Have they practiced the plan? What do they want you to do in the event of an emergency at the school?
