KIPP NC School Safety Assessment

by Veronica Smith, from the Community

This KIPP NC School Safety Assessment template helps schools evaluate campus security and readiness across key areas. It covers exterior controls such as signage, monitored entry, CCTV, alarms, lighting, perimeter fencing, and points of egress. Inside, it guides checks for visitor management, reception procedures, hallway safety, fire extinguishers, evacuation maps, and secure mechanical rooms. Classroom reviews include communication tools, emergency reference cards, first aid kits, lockdown shades, egress, and safe storage. Shared spaces like cafeterias, playgrounds, and gymnasiums are assessed for communication, life safety equipment, signage, occupancy, and equipment condition. The template also verifies emergency management plans, drills for fire, lockdown, shelter-in-place, reunification, and staff safety training to strengthen overall preparedness.
