Holy Spirit School provides a safe environment for our parish children through the continuing efforts of the faculty and the School Board Safety Committee.
Our EPP, Emergency Preparedness Plan, was created and implemented many years ago.
To keep our children safe plans and procedures are in place for basic daily processes like traffic flow and recess procedures. Additionally, our EPP covers all emergency situations from campus lock downs to natural disasters. There are enough supplies to provide for half of our student body for 72 hours! New this year is a portable first aid backpack, which accompanies classes when they travel off-campus on field trips.
Sgt. John Liu from the Fremont Police Dept. completed a campus risk and safety assessment with our team in November. After inspection Sgt. Liu approved our plans and procedures. He reinforced our new school policy to keep the main lobby door on Parish Avenue locked even during school hours.
The Safety Committee is comprised of volunteers from law enforcement, nursing, our teachers and doctors. If you have a medical or safety background, or are interested in serving on this Committee Please contact the school. Parishioners are encouraged to join the committee as an active volunteer or on a consultative basis.
Do you have any questions for our Safety Committee regarding the school safety program? We will address any questions at the Annual Emergency Preparedness Meeting for Parents (date TBA) as well as here in the Sunday Bulletin.
To volunteer or submit questions please email Barney Chan at barney168@sbcglobal.net, Frank Cannizaro at frandrew@mindspring.com, or leave a message at the school office – 793-3553. We would love to hear from you!
