Due to Spring Break, our monthly drill preparation will be held on April 9th at 3:00 PM with a second session at 3:30 PM. This month we will be covering EARTHQUAKE in conjunction with the Great Utah ShakeOut set for Thursday, April 17th, 2025, at 10:15 A.M..  Each School Safety Specialist is expected to attend along with administrators assigned to oversee school safety.  All other administrators are welcome to attend as well. The meeting is also open to any staff who may be interested.

After each monthly training, all school staff should be trained by the administrator over school safety and the School Safety Specialist. After being trained each month, teachers should educate their students on each safety drill. Additionally, schools should communicate with their patrons regarding Standard Response Protocol(s) (SRP) and the drill being conducted each month. Videos, handouts, and other resources can be found at the link(s) below.

Information regarding the EARTHQUAKE response protocol can be found in the Jordan School District Safety Manual on pages 28-31.  We will discuss how to implement and execute the drill.  This will be an opportunity to ask questions and share ideas amongst the schools.

We will be holding this meeting over ZOOM so please join using this link.
