    Accreditation Report Santa Rosa County School District Executive Summary SY 2016-2017 Page 1 © 2017 Advance Education, Inc. All rights reserved unless otherwise granted by written agreement. Accreditation Report Santa Rosa County School District Introduction Every school system has its own story to tell. The context in which teaching and learning takes place influences the processes and procedures by which the school system makes decisions around curriculum, instruction, and assessment. The context also impacts the way a school system stays faithful to its vision. Many factors contribute to the overall narrative such as an identification of stakeholders, a description of stakeholder engagement, the trends and issues affecting the school system, and the kinds of programs and services that a school system implements to support student learning. The purpose of the Executive Summary (ES) is to provide a school system with an opportunity to describe in narrative form the strengths and challenges it encounters. By doing so, the public and members of the community will have a more complete picture of how the school system perceives itself and the process of self-reflection for continuous improvement. This summary is structured for the school system to reflect on how it provides teaching and learning on a day to day basis. SY 2016-2017 Page 2 © 2017 Advance Education, Inc.

  • Santa Rosa County Local Mitigation Strategy SECTION 3 HAZARD
    Santa Rosa County Local Mitigation Strategy SECTION 3 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT 3.1 Santa Rosa County Local Mitigation Strategy This page intentionally left blank. 3.2 Santa Rosa County Local Mitigation Strategy HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT Introduction This section of the Santa Rosa County LMS summarizes the results of a hazards and vulnerability assessment process undertaken by the Task Force members and includes a description of the types of hazards that may affect Santa Rosa County, their probability of occurrence, the geographic locations that are vulnerable, the number of structures and population affected, and potential loss estimates. This information, gathered from a variety of sources, provides the best available data for describing and quantifying the potential impacts to Santa Rosa County and is consistent with the County’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. Primary attention is given to natural hazards considered reasonably possible to occur in the County as identified thorough research by staff, input from members and citizens, and data provided by FEMA and other sources. These hazards include: Flooding (Hurricanes, Tropical Storms, and Thunderstorms) Severe Storms and Lightning (Including Hurricane Winds) Tornadoes and Waterspouts Wildfire Heat Waves and Drought Winter Storms and Freezes Erosion Tsunamis/Rogue Waves This update of the LMS omits hazards noted in prior versions that are unlikely to occur in Santa Rosa County. Those hazards are earthquake, avalanche, land subsidence, landslide, volcano, and sinkholes. The previous LMS also identified dam/levee failure as a separate hazard; however, the dams in Santa Rosa County are fairly small in size and impacts from failures fall within the broader hazard category of flooding.
