What is an 'emergency evacuation kit'?
An 'Emergency Evacuation Kit' is usually best: a rolling backpack--some type of small container, filled with the things that administrators, and crisis team members must have to manage a crisis, in the event they cannot remain in, or return to their office: things like student contact information, flashlights, first-aid kits--the contents will vary by location. But just think, "If you cannot get back into your office, and you have to remain outside for two or three hours, what will you need to lead, and to perform crisis functions, and response functions?" There should be two kits stored in two separate locations for each facility:not just schools, but support facilities as well. If you're an independent school, and have staff living near your campus in a private residence, you may want to consider a back-up kit being stored there. The kits should be taken out anytime there's a drill, to condition staff under stress, to remember to take that kit out. A staff member remains with the kit, and takes it to the lead public safety official, and makes them aware of the contents, but we remain with that kit.
