What will be the impact on a school, if part or all of the building is required to be used as an alternate care site?
If designation of a school building for emergency use is necessary and appropriate, the school district’s emergency plan and local community’s Emergency Operation Plan should specify how school buildings would be used as alternative sites during a state or local emergency, for housing, medical triage, food distribution or other emergency services. As such, school districts should prepare contingency plans (Continuity of Operation Plans) that outline how education services will be provided if one or more school buildings become unavailable for an extended period.
