Student and campus health and safety is more than just a trending topic. It is one of many responsibilities that school and school district administrators and staff take on when they make a commitment to be educational stewards. Local education agencies (LEAs) play an important role in ensuring that educational facilities are prepared to prevent, protect, mitigate, respond to, and recover from emergencies caused by threats and hazards, both natural and man-made. LEAs are in a key position to engage students, faculty, and staff in emergency management planning activities so that the whole school and campus community is better prepared and more resilient in the event of an emergency.

You can use the toolkit to support those efforts. Select any of the three boxes above to access a particular section of the toolkit.
