District Safety Meeting with H logo

The Hallsville School District hosted its first safety meeting of the year last week. The group reviewed the district's CSIP Goal of Excellent Schools, specifically Improvement Objective 2.1.2: Schools provide a safe environment where students can focus on academic learning. The group also reviewed the “I Love U Guys” Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol.


The Standard Response Protocol is based on an all-hazards approach to incidents that can happen in schools. This protocol provides common, easy-to-understand language while allowing for flexibility in how school administrators and first responders respond. The premise is simple; there are five specific actions that can be performed during an incident or emergency: HOLD, SECURE, LOCKDOWN, EVACUATE and SHELTER.


Students and staff will train and practice the response protocols throughout the school year.

What is a HOLD? HOLD “In Your Classroom or Area”: HOLD is called when the hallways need to be kept clear even during class changes.  Students are trained to clear the hallways and remain in their room or area until the “All Clear” is announced and, to do business as usual. Adults and staff are trained to close and lock the door, account for all students and adults, and do business as usual. What is a SECURE? SECURE “Get inside. Lock outside doors”: SECURE is called when there is a threat or hazard outside the building.  Students are trained to return to inside the building and do business as usual. Adults and staff are trained to bring everyone indoors, lock the outside doors, increase situational awareness, account for students and adults, and do business as usual. What is a LOCKDOWN? LOCKDOWN “Locks, Lights, Out of Sight”: LOCKDOWN is called when there is a threat or hazard inside the building.  Students are trained to move away from sight, maintain silence, and do not open the door. Adults and staff are trained to recover students from hallways if possible, lock the classroom door, turn out the lights, move away from sight, maintain silence, do not open the door, and prepare to evade or defend. What is an EVACUATE? EVACUATE “To a Location”: EVACUATE is called to move students and staff from one location to another.  Students are trained to leave stuff behind if required, bring their phones (if possible) and follow instructions. Adults and staff are trained to bring a roll sheet if possible and a Go Bag (unless instructed not to take anything), lead students to the evacuation location, account for students and adults, and report injuries or problems. What is a SHELTER? SHELTER “State the Hazard and Safety Strategy”: SHELTER is called when the need for personal protection is necessary.  Hazards and their safety strategies might include Tornado (Evacuate to a shelter area), Hazmat (Seal the room) and Earthquake (Drop, cover and hold). Students are trained in the appropriate safety strategies for the hazard. Adults and staff are trained in leading the appropriate safety strategies for the hazard, account for students and adults, and report injuries or problems.
