Safety Share – Required Fire Drill in January 2023

Weather permitting, all locations are required to conduct a fire evacuation drill within the first 10 school days after the beginning of the new calendar year (after winter recess). If weather makes it difficult to conduct the drill within the first 10 days, please conduct it within a reasonably short period of time and document the reason for the delay when reporting the drill.

A fire drill in January may not be ideal due to winter weather. Try to select the best day according to the forecast. This is a great time to promote wearing coats and seasonal attire.

Notify the Jordan School District 24-hour Alarm Response 801-567-8865 a minimum of 30 minutes prior to the drill, so that the fire department is NOT dispatched unnecessarily.

Remember to record the drill using the Jordan School District report form on Google Drive, link:

2022-23 REPORT EMERGENCY — DRILLS, ACTUAL EVENTS, or MEETINGS

Bookmark this form for future use. You can also use it to record related planning meetings before the drill, and debrief meetings afterward.

Contact Emergency Operations Manager Lance Everill with questions: 801-567-8623, lance.everill@jordandistrict.org
