Emergency Procedures

The staff of Broadway has been trained in disaster preparedness and sheltering techniques. Plans have been made to care for all students and employees in case of an emergency. In the event of an emergency, parents are advised to remain calm and to follow these emergency disaster procedures:

1. Tune to emergency radio stations: KFWB (AM 980) or KNX (AM 1070). Stay off the telephone. Communicating with the school via telephone after the disaster will prove difficult and could delay emergency communications. After an emergency, all rooms will be checked, and students will be escorted to an emergency assembly area.
2. When arriving at school, parents or other designated adults should first report to the REQUEST GATES located at the east end gate of the staff parking lot and sign-out each child. Please remember that students will only be released to adults whose names are listed on the student’s Emergency Card. Parents must make sure that the Emergency Card is current and correct. Please notify the school anytime the emergency contact information changes. Photo I.D. will be required at the Request Gate.
3. Parents will proceed to the REUNION GATE, which is the pedestrian gate next to the auditorium, where they will meet their children. Parents or guardians are to wait at the Reunion Gate until child(ren) are escorted to the parent. No child will be dismissed from the emergency assembly area without the authorization of a parent, Principal or designee.
4. Designated staff members will be available at both gates to assist parents.
5. If Parent/guardian/designee is unable to pick up their child(ren) following the emergency disaster, the student(s) will REMAIN AT SCHOOL under the supervision of school staff until their arrival.
6. Updates will be posted at the REQUEST GATE.
