INTRUDER LOCKDOWNIntruder Lockdown Immediate threat to the school Intruder Lockdown minimizes access to the school and secures staff and students Everyone must remain in the room until the situation has been declared safe by the Mountain View College Police Department. All Clear will be given.

HOSTILE INTRUDER

When a hostile person(s) is actively causing death or serious bodily injury or the threat of imminent death or serious bodily injury to staff, faculty and/or students within a building, we recommend the following:

HOSTILE INTRUDER IN A BUILDING While this guide refers primarily to academic areas of the building, it should be understood that these informational guidelines are also relevant to administrative areas and other common buildings on campus.

Immediate lockdown Faculty, students, visitors Locate and enter a room in the immediate area, push the green button on the backside of the door handle (Figure A), turn off lights, cover windows and doors if safe to do so. Be sure you are not in the direct line of sight. Some doors require card access to lock the door (Figure B). Barricade the doors with desks, tables, chairs, etc.

INTRUDER LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES

Figure AFigure B

INTRUDER LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES cont.

If communications are available, call 911 from any campus phone, or using a cell phone, call 972-860-4290 to contact DCCCD dispatch. Inform the dispatchers as to the hostile situation and they will notify the Mountain View College Police.

Do not pull the fire alarm. A fire alarm would signal the occupants to evacuate the building and place them in potential harm as they attempt to exit.

INTRUDER LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES cont. Turn off lights and all audio equipment to give the illusion of an empty classroom.

INTRUDER LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES cont.

Keep everyone together.

Keep classrooms secure until the all clear is given by the police department.

If you are not in a classroom, try to get to a classroom or an office. Students, faculty or staff standing in the halls should seek shelter inside of the closest office or classroom . Stay out of open areas and be quiet as possible.

SHELTER IN PLACEShelter-In-Place - is a safety procedure that will help protect students, faculty and staff by taking shelter inside designated rooms if a tornado warning has been issued for the area.

SHELTER IN PLACE PROCEDURES

This alert may also be given by the sound of a siren using one continuous blast of bullhorns (used during power failure) and flashing lights located within the building.Tornado Warning & Severe WeatherTornado sirens will sound to alert of a possible tornado in the area. Tornado sirens will sound letting people know that a tornado was seen or is forming nearby. Campus Police will announce over the buildings public announcement system and/or telephones to seek shelter. The announcement will also be sent via text message through Blackboard to all campus personnel.Retrieve personal items, secure sensitive information, and seek shelter at one of the tornado safer zones.

Take personal items, secure sensitive information, and proceed to the following emergency areas or to foyers that are shaded in green or blue on the map mounted on the classroom or work area walls. These emergency areas are also listed on the green emergency procedures reference chart that is mounted on the classroom or work area walls.

Shelter-in-place locations are also marked inside of the building with Tornado Safer Zone signs.

FIRE DRILLS

Fire Drill

A method of practicing the evacuation of a building for a fire. Generally, the emergency system (usually the fire alarm) sounds and the building is evacuated as though a real fire had occurred. Usually, the time it takes to evacuate is measured to ensure that it occurs within a reasonable length of time, and problems with the emergency system or evacuation procedures are identified to be remedied.

P.A.S.S.

PullAimSqueezeSweep

FIRE DRILL PROCEDURESA loud chirping sound followed by flashing lights will signal a fire alarm. Campus Police will announce over the building intercoms or telephones to exit the building at the nearest exit. When the fire alarm has been activated, either smoke has been detected or one of the pull stations have been pulled.

FIRE DRILL PROCEDURES cont. Move away from the building at least 300 feet to the evacuation signs in the parking lots and opened areas. Re-enter the building only after the All Clear has been given by the campus police. Take all personal items, secure sensitive information, and evacuate the building at the nearest exit. DO NOT USE ELEVATORS. First ask and then assist handicapped individuals out of the building or alert a CERT member/Fire Personnel of their location. Silenced Fire Alarms are not a signal to re-enter the building.

SCENARIO 1The alarm inside the campus buildings are sounding stating that a tornado warning has been issued for the area. Which emergency procedure should be conducted?
