EBCB-R Fire drills shall
be scheduled by the Principal each month during the school year. The purpose of a fire drill is to train
students, under staff direction, to move safely, quickly, and quietly from
any location within the building to an assigned evacuation area outside. All schools
will comply with the following rules and procedures: 1. Rules for fire evacuation will be posted in
each room. These rules will indicate
the primary and alternate exits and the evacuation area to which the student
should proceed upon leaving the building.
The posted rules will be discussed with each class using the room,
during the first day(s) of the school year. 2. A district fire alarm signal will be used
for fire drills only; another signal will be established by the Principal for
return to class. 3. No person is to remain in the building
during fire drills. 4. Evacuation areas will be at least 50 feet
(100 feet, if possible) away from buildings and out of driveways. 5. It is each student's responsibility to move
quickly, quietly, and in an orderly manner through the assigned exit to the
assigned evacuation area. 6. The teacher will be responsible for: a. Seeing that windows are closed. b. Assuring that electrical circuits and gas jets
are turned off. c. Maintaining order during the evacuation. d. Assigning students to hold the doors open,
if their group is the first to evacuate from such doors; and instructing
students holding doors to rejoin the class after the last person has passed
through the doors. e. Taking the roll book and checking roll when
the class is in the assigned evaluation area.
The name of any student not accounted for will be reported immediately
to the Principal or his/her designee. 7. The exercise will be observed by thePprincipal. Adopted: April 8, 1993 Board
