STANDARD RESPONSE PROTOCOL (SRP)

Our school has adopted The “I Love U Guys” Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol (SRP).  Students and staff will be training, practicing, and drilling the protocol throughout the school year.

COMMON LANGUAGE
The Standard Response Protocol (SRP) is based on an all-hazards approach as opposed to individual scenarios.  Like the Incident Command System (ICS), SRP utilizes clear common language while allowing for flexibility in protocol.


The premise is simple - there are five specific actions that can be performed during an incident. When communicating these, the action is labeled with a “Term of Art” and is then followed by a “Directive.” Execution of the action is performed by active participants, including students, staff, teachers and first responders. The SRP is based on the following actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter.

The following sign will be posted in all classrooms and spaces within our district buildings as a quick reference should the following actions be set in motion.   Instructions will be given to staff and students via our paging, phone or email systems, if possible and available.

 

 

A poster outlines the Standard Response Protocol (SRP) with four actions: Hold, Secure, Evacuate, and Shelter, each with corresponding icons and instructions.

A document titled 'Standard Response Protocol' outlines safety procedures for schools, with sections on 'Secure' and 'Lockdown'.
