3 LEVELS OF CRISIS AISD adheres to principles of the Incident Command System (ICS). ICS is a standard organizational model of response under the National Incident Management System (NIMS). The District has formerly adopted the NIMS.

CAMPUS LEVEL CRISIS Handled by Campus Staff Level (4 -5)

Involves personal tragedy or threatening incidents primarily affecting a student, teacher or administrator impacting a single campus. Ex: Death of Parent, Deportation of Parent, Incarceration of Parent, Child Abuse, Bullying, Fights, Suicide Outcry, Assault.

DISTRICT LEVEL CRISIS Need Additional Support from District LEVEL (3)

Constitutes a major personal crisis or threatening incident at a campus or major disaster elsewhere that indirectly impacts students and teachers with high emotional fall out.

(Ex: On or off campus death of staff or student, on campus suicide attempt, suicide completion, arson resulting in destruction involving emotional fall-out.)

COMMUNITY LEVEL CRISIS Community Involvement LEVEL (2 or 1)

Threatened disaster or catastrophe that directly or profoundly affects more than one campus. Coordination of services from campus, district and local community response agencies is warranted.

8  Monitor student and see as needed.  Refer to Child Study Team DEATH BY SUICIDE

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) & Suicide Prevention Resource Center (SPRC) created: (After a Suicide: A Toolkit for Schools) Free Kit: http://www.afsp.org/schools

Get The Facts:  Must work with AISD Police Department. If there is an ongoing investigation, check with AISD police before speaking about the death with students who may need to be interviewed by authorities.  If there is an ongoing investigation, schools should state that the cause of death is still being determined and additional information will be forthcoming once death is confirmed.  Acknowledge that there are rumors (which are often inaccurate). Remind students & staff that rumors can be deeply hurtful and unfair to the deceased person, their family and their friends.

Principal or designee contacts family:  Information about the cause of death should not be disclosed until the family has been consulted.  If death has been declared a suicide but the family does not want it disclosed, administrator needs to explain that students are already talking about the death amongst themselves, and that having adults in the school talk to the students about suicide and its causes can help keep students safe.

If Family Does Not Want the Cause of Death Disclosed:  Administrator communicates: “The family has requested that information about the cause of death not be shared at this time and it is very important to respect the family’s wishes.”

To minimize the risk of suicide contagion:  Principal may communicate: “We know there has been a lot of talk about whether this was a suicide death. Since the subject of suicide has been raised, we want to take this opportunity to give you accurate information about suicide in general, ways to prevent it, and how to get help if you or someone you know is feeling depressed or may be suicidal.”

Disclosure of information to students and staff:  Teacher or staff person who is familiar with students should read prepared announcements to small groups.  Make the announcement early in the school day (so students can be provided with support and structure.)  Do be honest and direct about what occurred without going into graphic detail.  Send letter home to parents (with students) so they will be aware of what is happening.  Provide information regarding funeral arrangements as soon as it is known.  Identify and monitoring at risk students. (Students with history of suicide ideation/attempt, close friends)

Memorial Services and Remembrances: Memorial service can be a highly emotional event that has the potential for increasing possibility of suicide contagion. Suicide contagion can occur when events (such as memorial services and media coverage) glorify or sensationalize the death. This increases the risk factors for youth who are depressed, troubled, or at increased risk for suicide. Media reports, as well as memorial services, are two of the biggest factors that contribute to suicide contagion.  Avoid any type of large-scale memorial service or remembrance that takes place at school /especially during school hrs.  Do not allow permanent plaques or dedications to the individual to be erected  Openly acknowledge and discuss the pain, and heartache the death has caused.  Encourage donations to suicide prevention efforts.

Special Considerations: Good rule of thumb before deciding on a permanent memorial (for any student or staff death). Think what it would be like to times it by 3-5 for future events. What may seem like a good idea at the time (planting a tree, erecting a park bench, etc.) may seem much less appropriate when applied in multiples. Consult with Associate Superintendent’s Office.  Allow students and faculty time away from school to attend memorial service.  Consider allowing attendance at service to be an excused absence. Check with Associate Superintendent’s Office.  Require a note from parents giving permission to attend.  Encourage parents to attend the service with their son/daughter or have them be accompanied by another parent.

9 Deportation, Incarceration or Sudden Death of Parent

(Steps to follow when a student remains at school after school hours and administrator has reason to believe deportation, incarceration or sudden death maybe the cause.)

 Administrator and Counselor verify by contacting the parent, guardian or other family members listed on the AISD emergency contact.  In the event administrator/counselor is not able to make contact and the student is left on campus, campus administrator would contact Austin ISD Police Department.  Austin ISD Police would use district student profile to attempt to locate a family member.  If Austin ISD Police could not locate a family member or individual listed as an emergency contact then AISD Police Department would contact Child Protective Services (CPS)  Campus counselor and AISD Police collaboratively support the student as they wait for CPS to arrive.  During this waiting time, Campus counselor provides one on one counseling and review stress/anxiety management steps with student.  Campus counselor can ask student if there are other willing adult supports that student can share the names of with the CPS counselor.

Support for Student When and/or If Student Returns to School

 Campus counselor provide individual or small group counseling and/or refer to other counseling support on campus (i.e. CIS)  Counselor completes the AISD Individual Safety Plan with the individual student.  Safety Plan defines an individual plan when and/or if the student begins to feel stress, anxiety while at school.  Safety Plan will identify at least 2 willing school support staff.  Safety Plan will identify at least 2 willing adult supports outside of school.  Safety Plan will list counseling support hotline number.  Obtain permission from student to share Individual Safety Plan with student’s teachers.

NOTE: The AISD Individual Safety Plan can be used for all types of student crisis. There is an Individual Safety Plan Document for both Elementary and Secondary.
