District Safety
The Board recognizes that safety and health standards should be incorporated into all aspects of
the operation of the District. Rules for safety and prevention of accidents shall be posted in
compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) requirements. Injuries and
accidents shall be reported to the District office.
A plan shall be developed that includes fire, civil defense, tornado and earthquake warning,
protection and evacuation. This plan shall be distributed to each teacher at the beginning of each
school year. There shall be at least eight disaster drills a year, four of which shall be fire drills.
The drills shall be held at different hours of the day or evening to avoid distinction between drills
and actual disasters.
