WI Act 309 - School Safety Plan Requirements

School safety plan shall be created with the active participation of appropriate parties as specified by the BOE. Might include: law enforcement, fire fighters, school admin, teachers, pupil services, and mental health professionals.

School safety plan shall include general guidelines specifying professionals for: emergency prevention and mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery, and plans for conducting drills.

School board shall review the school safety plan at least once every three years after the plan goes into effect.

WI Statutes continue to require: monthly drills for pupils on proper evacuation methods in case of fire, and twice annual evacuation drills for pupils in event of tornado. This section was revised to add the following:
1. Twice annually pupils shall be drilled in the proper method of evacuation, or other appropriate action in case of school safety incident (may use in place of a mandatory fire or other hazard drill).
2. These drills shall be based on the procedures outlined in the school safety plan.
