Providing a safe place for
students is one of the most
important responsibilities of
our school system. All SUSD
schools are required to have a
disaster plan called the
Readiness and Emergency
Management for Schools or REMS
Plan. Drill procedures for
emergencies and disasters are
regularly practiced at school.
Along with school staff, your
family plays a very important
role in preventing and
responding to school
emergencies.
Here is what you can do to help
us be prepared for any emergency
or disaster:
• Report any issues, concerns or
rumors related to safety to your
school principal or SUSD Police
Department 468-6911.
• Help support all security
measures when visiting our
schools by signing in and out at
the school office and wearing a
visitor’s badge at all times
while in the building.
• Regularly update your
student’s Emergency Card with
your current contact information
and emergency information. This
is the contact information which
will be used for our automated
telephone system to alert you of
situations. In the event of an
emergency, only custodial
parents, legal guardians and
those persons listed on the
emergency card are allowed to
pick up students at a parent
re-unification center. Persons
picking up students must have a
valid picture ID.
• If your child is on
medications taken at school, be
sure the school has at least a
two day supply at all times.
We encourage you to talk with
the school principal should you
have any questions or concerns
regarding the school’s REMS
Plan.
