  • SMJUHSD Standard Response Protocol (SRP) for Inciden...

    Dear SMJUHSD Families, As we start the new school year, we would like to share with you how we, as a district, respond to incidents that occur on or near our school campuses that may impact student and staff safety.  We take the safety of our students and staff very seriously, and all threats or potential threats are treated with the utmost urgency.   During any active incident, we communicate with the following agencies and people in the order noted below: 911 (when appropriate; most often for  Secure  and  Lockdown ) District Office Incident Response Team School-Wide Staff Families of students at impacted school site/s through ParentSquare Alerts and Posts We collaborate with all of our local law enforcement agencies and first responders during any active incident.  When there is an incident that is occurring on or near a school campus that may impact or is impacting student and staff safety, we immediately initiate our Standard Response Protocol (SRP) system.  All SMJUHSD staff have been trained on the SRP system, and all school sites practice what to do during an active SRP incident with monthly drills. SRP is an action-based response system that provides a concise common vocabulary in times of crisis, hazards, and threats.  All incidents fall into one of five categories with specific action steps to be followed. Here are the five SRP responses: HOLD SECURE LOCKDOWN EVACUATE SHELTER Here is our family handout ( English ,  Spanish ) regarding our SRP response protocols for different incidents. The handouts are also included as attachments to this post. We have also built out a webpage to provide information to parents, students, and staff, which can be found at this link: https://www.smjuhsd.org/schoolsafety Please do not hesitate to reach out to your school site with any questions you may have.
