(Amended Ed. Codes 35294.1 & 35294.6) Beginning July 1, 2000, each individual school must report on the status of its school safety plan, including a description of its key elements in the school accountability report card, and must continue to do so every July thereafter (Amended Ed. Code 35294.6) The following guideline may be utilized to support the annual review and evaluation of the individual school safety plan. This guide will also provide a time line and related administrative tasks to provide a process to ensure compliance with the requirements of Senate Bill 187, Comprehensive School Safety Plan. The guideline/checklist has been organized into two parts: 1. An assessment by the School Safety Planning Committee of the School Site Council, the School Site Council or equivalent of the school climate in relation to the current status of school crime committed on campus and at school related functions. Based on this assessment, safety goals will be set for the upcoming school year. 2. The annual review and evaluation of the school comprehensive safety plan which is certified by the members of the School Safety Planning Committee, the School Site Council President, and the school Principal before being presented to the Board of Trustees for final review and adoption. This review includes the following mandated components of Senate Bill 187: • Child Abuse reporting procedures • Policies pursuant to Education Code 48915(c) and other school-designated serious acts which would lead to suspension, expulsion, or mandatory expulsion recommendations • Procedures to notify teachers and counselors of dangerous students • Sexual Harassment Policy • Safe ingress and egress to and from school • Rules and procedures on school discipline in order to create a safe and orderly environment conducive to learning • Dress Code CSSP: 2017 – 2018 MetroED PAGE 4 OF 159 • Routine and emergency disaster procedures including natural disasters, human created disasters or power outages.
