Active Shooter Parent Presentation
Summary
Executive Summary
The number one concern of Odyssey Charter School is the safety and welfare of the scholars, employees and families in our school community. During the past 10 years school violence has escalated and so has the need for emergency planning. These safety plans include the training of scholars, teachers and parents to make sure we safely return your scholar to the family during a time of crisis on campus. No scholars is considered “Safe” until they are in the control of the family and headed home. The goal of the security planning for our campus is to accomplish this goal “safely return the scholar to their family and get them moving toward their home”. This program is designed to inform parents of their responsibility during a Shooter on Campus or similar situation. Please follow along and ask any questions you would like to the school administrator.
