Getting families reunited in an efficient and orderly fashion is essential. Reunification can be an enormous challenge and requires a great deal of careful planning. An area should be designated for parents/guardians to pick up their children. This area should be away from the damage and away from the student assembly area. Parents/Guardians will be required to sign a statement indicating they have picked up their child. Communication with families is essential. Schools should notify parents at the beginning of each school year of the school’s procedures for dealing with an emergency and the process that will be used in reunification in the event of an emergency. School staff should be aware that reunification has at times taken place at locations other than the school. Safe/Refuge Areas Prince George's County Public Schools, in to evacuate individuals with disabilities from multi-level buildings, have implemented the Safe Area Plan. This plan designates an area near a stairway on each level above and below the first level to temporarily locate individuals with disabilities during an emergency. The purpose of the plan is to provide protection for individuals in an area of safety until rescue personnel can evacuate them. Safe/Refuge Area Plans shall be established for all multi-level buildings. To the greatest extent possible, individuals with disabilities should be placed in classes and/or offices on the ground floor. The safe area evacuation plan should be implemented during all fire drills, as well as real emergencies. Concept of Safe/Refuge Areas Safe/Refuge Areas: Designated area near a stairwell on each floor, at opposite ends of the building, to which individuals with disabilities can report when the fire alarm is activated. Are located on all floors above or below the main entrance level or ground floor. Serves as transition areas for individuals unable to evacuate on their own, as they await evacuation by trained rescue personnel. Safe/Refuge Area should be clearly marked on the mini floor plan. Safe/Refuge Area windows should be marked where possible from the outside with appropriate signage (see example below) Reproducible in Appendix.
