Important Lockout Protocol Revision for All Levels – Incident Command Manual

IMPORTANT
Incident Command Manual - Violence Action Plan
Lockout Protocol Revision for All Levels

When a threat of external violence occurs within close proximity to a school campus, it is common for that school (and potentially other schools in the vicinity) to go into a Lockout.  This is typically executed at the direction of law enforcement.

After consulting with multiple law enforcement agencies, a revision has been made to the Lockout protocol, as outlined in the Jordan School District Incident Command Manual.

The District has been advised that once a Lockout is implemented and students and staff members that are outside for PE or recess have been brought safely into the building, no entrance into or exit from school should be allowed until the Lockout has ended.

The Incident Command manual has been edited to reflect this revision, and is available to administrators on the Google Drive, in: ASB - Website Docs and Forms, select Safety/Security, select Incident Command, then: PDF JSD ICS Manual Rev. February 2018.

For your convenience, a Lockout sign has been created, which can be posted on the main doors at the school entrance during a Lockout event.  This sign in available on the Drive, in same location as the updated Incident Command Manual.
