While there are many aspects of school safety, I’d like to focus this article on the importance of emergency drills. Such drills help create predictability and help students, staff, and emergency responders better coordinate their responses. Simulating real events also puts emergency plans and equipment to the test, giving schools a chance to work through any unforeseen complications.
