Dear Participant: 

We want to thank you for signing up for our three-part series, Comprehensive School Safety: Readiness and Emergency Management for Schools. Our primary learning objective is to help and support you and your district in the development of your Comprehensive High-Quality Emergency Operations Plans (School Safety plans).

Recognizing a lot of this work has already been done, we have two pre-work assignments:

• Come prepared with your Plan handy to reference/share 
• Think about concerns/challenges and any inspiring examples of what's worked well for your organization.

What to expect from this three-part series: During these on-line webinar sessions, you can expect a review of planning principles, requirements, and templates/processes to build or refine existing plans.  We will facilitate opportunities to learn success and best practices from peers and hearing success stories executed elsewhere.  This training is designed as a working session - you'll get more out of it as you participate in conversation and apply learnings directly to your own plan and local processes.

**Zoom links will be provided directly to registrants 24-hours in advance of webinar
