E-Prep Training

PTA/PTSA Preparedness Chair Information

​Preparedness for emergencies and disasters, as well as the prevention of accidents is a serious concern of those who care for children in the home, at school, and in the community. Activities to promote safety, injury prevention and emergency preparedness can be incorporated in all PTSA/PTA interests.

When it comes to school safety and emergency preparedness; all aspects of planning, execution, corrective actions, documentation, supplies, and training are the school’s and school district’s responsibility.  The PTSA/PTA  plays a SUPPORTING ROLE; we can help the district, administrators, staff, emergency coordinators, nurses and principals with their permission. Opportunities may include fund raising, supporting grant requests, parent education, observing/participating in school drills, purchasing supplies, inventory audits, restocking, disposal, overall organizing, documenting, newsletters and collaborating with other E-Prep chairs in your school feeder pattern.

Create a Culture of Emergency Preparedness will help families prepare for emergencies.
Supplies and Emergency Containers
