OTSEGO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
EMERGENCY SHELTERING PLAN
Shelter Plan:
There will be a shelter drill signal that will alert all occupants that we must
take shelter inside Otsego. The attached plan illustrates the procedures
and the designated areas that each class will travel to in the event of an
emergency.
Please note:
• Once the alarm signals that a drill has begun, classroom teachers
should exit with their classes.
• Specials (Art, Music, Physical Education, and Library) should exit
immediately and proceed to designated locations. Classroom teachers
report directly to special teacher locations.
Crisis Response Team:
Principal
Assistant Principal
Head Custodian
Psychologist
Nurse
Secretaries
Sharon Stepankewich
Stacey Bernstein
Ruben Torres
Tony Farinacci
Ingrid Steffens
Terri Flynn / Cynthia Toomey
The following procedures will be utilized:
• Crisis Response Team Members will obtain walkie-talkies to
communicate throughout the drill.
• The Head Custodian and his staff will shut down all ventilation systems
and check to see that all windows and doors are closed, including the
main entrance door. They will then take shelter at the nearest area.
• The Principal and Assistant Principal will pick up Emergency
Response Kits.
• Members will check assigned areas and indicate when their area is
secure. The alarm will then be silenced and the “return to class” signal
will sound.
• Cheryl Greguski will supervise the 200 wing and take
shelter with Room 205.
• Joan Truebig will supervise the 300 Wing and take shelter
with Room 305.
