How does OSCR360 assist with each component of your Emergency Response Plan? SRP Action: Shelter
The Standard Response Protocol (SRP) has been adopted by hundreds of school districts and emergency response agencies nationwide who are working together to keep students and staff safe at school. The SRP provides a framework of standardized language and actions to follow during every type of event, from minor threats to large scale emergencies.

How does OSCR360 assist with each component of your Emergency Response Plan? SRP Action: Lockdown
During the SRP Action: lockdown, individual rooms are to be secured, and students are to stay quiet and hidden.
The Lockdown action is typically followed by the directive “Locks. Lights. Out of Sight.”
Lockdowns are issued when student and staff safety is threatened inside of the school building. Students and staff are to lock or barricade themselves within the room and hide quietly until help arrives to safely release them.
OSCR360 can be implemented into your school’s emergency plans. See how the system can assist with planning and training for a school lockdown.
How does OSCR360 assist with each component of your Emergency Response Plan? SRP Action: Secure
The SRP Action: Secure is followed by the directive “Get inside. Lock outside doors.”
When the secure directive is issued, it indicates that there is a potential danger outside of the school building. The intention is to safeguard students within the confines of the locked school. All students and staff are to go inside, and the exterior doors of the school building are locked. There are typically few, if any, changes to the normal happenings within the school building during this type of temporary threat.

How does OSCR360 assist with each component of your Emergency Response Plan? SRP Action: Hold
The Standard Response Protocol originated in 2009 with a simple, yet clear, mission: Keep schools safe.
The SRP focuses on providing uniformity and consistency for responding to any – and every – type of hazardous scenario. As part of a school district’s broader emergency plan, the SRP promotes the use of both common language and common expectations when teaching and training students, staff, and first responders on emergency protocols.

The Importance of Clear, Consistent Language in Your School Emergency Response Plan
When it comes to creating your school emergency response plan, it is essential that everyone is crystal clear about what the plans mean and how to implement the plan in any given emergency scenario.
See how OSCR360 can help with clarity and integrating SRP language into your Emergency Response Plans.
Where to Begin: Your School Emergency Operations Plan
Planning and preparation for a wide-scale school emergency is a daunting task. The “I Love You Guys” Standard Response Protocol (SRP) recommends creating an Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) with detailed steps and actions to cover every type of emergency.
Creating – and updating – an EOP requires a great deal of collaboration, problem-solving and critical thinking among a team of community-wide stakeholders. See how OSCR360 can help, and visually enhances workshops, trainings and tabletop exercises.
What role does OSCR360 play in your School Standard Response Protocol?
The Standard Response Protocol (SRP) was developed to provide common language, training and expectations that students, teachers and first responders should use during any crisis situation. The Protocol is created from research-based best practices and provides a familiar, rehearsed approach to all types of hazards and emergency scenarios. This includes everything from natural disasters and fires to active shooter threats, or potential danger in the vicinity of the school district, and more.
