What this document actually says
This is the district's required comprehensive safety plan covering all three schools (Reed Elementary, Bel Aire Elementary, and Del Mar Middle School) for the 2025-2026 school year. The 148-page document outlines emergency procedures for earthquakes, fires, lockdowns, active shooters, medical emergencies, and other crisis situations. It details evacuation routes, assembly locations, the Incident Command System, staff responsibilities during emergencies, and parent reunification procedures. The plan includes checklists, emergency supply recommendations, and instructional continuity planning. Staff are designated as disaster service workers under California law and are expected to remain with students during emergencies until parents retrieve them. The plan was updated October 10, 2025, and is available to all families in school offices and on Google Drive.
What this means for your family
This plan determines how the school will protect your child during emergencies. Key points: students stay at school until you or an authorized adult picks them up; staff will remain with students during disasters; schools have 72-hour emergency supplies; you should update emergency contact cards annually. Review evacuation locations and reunification procedures so you know where to retrieve your child during a crisis.
