Most people today are only focused on active shooter incidents. While that is a very disruptive and horrific incident to encounter, there are many other incidents that your school could, and should, be planning for. Averting a School Crisis explains to its readers how to begin the school preparedness planning process for all the incidents your school can face. Understanding how to manage your vulnerabilities and putting your staff to use will save time and lives when an emergency occurs. It is up to you to help your school become prepared for its worst day.Averting a School Crisis is an excellent resource of knowledge and guidance. This text was prepared for all members of a community, first responders, administrators, and teachers, to serve as a resource to raise awareness and activities among our children and communities.
