Obtain your school or district crisis plan if you have not already done so. If you were not able to obtain a Crisis Management Plan, use the (Virginia Department of Education, 2002) located in the required studies section.

Analyze your school’s crisis plan and address the following:

• Explain the communications procedure.
  • Along what paths is information shared?
  • Who contacts whom?
• Describe the plan’s contingencies.
  • If key people are missing, how is the procedure different?
• Who is ultimately responsible for insuring everyone on the list is contacted and follow-up takes place?
  • If there is no one person or office, how does your school prevent the information flow from coming to a standstill?

Support your statements with evidence from the required studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.
