Incident Command Systems (ICS) for Schools
from Henry R. Horn
In spite of our best efforts and preparation, school personnel may need to serve as first responders for an array of emergency incidents.
School personnel are likely to be the first on the scene when an incident occurs on school property or involves school staff or students. Eventually police, fire, emergency medical services or another external agency will manage response to the incident. However, the first response will likely be by school employees. They will act as a bridge, conducting initial response activities until first-responders such as police, fire and emergency medical services can arrive. School employees can manage these initial response activities for an incident more effectively by establishing incident command.
ICS can also be utilized as an effective management structure for pre-planned, non-emergency events such as a football game or a school graduation.
