Summary of Tasks:
Have someone launch the crisis alert.
The Building Manager needs to launch the roster event asap.
Staff need to submit an answer for each student they care for, accounted for is the default “present” answer. If staff know a given student was in the bathroom, mark under “unaccounted for” check “Last seen” and type in bathroom or a recent known location to aide in the search.
Marking a student Absent should only be done when the adult is 1000% sure the student(s) is not in the building that day. Absent does NOT mean the student is missing from your class.
When a staff member is done “submitting attendance” they can select the “Mark as complete” option, so managers know who is done taking attendance. Checking this option is only for staff reporting purposes and does not update student data in any way. (Also it does not impede anyone from making changes as you find a new student etc.).
After most attendance is complete send in a staff wellness check-in. (Are you safe?)
Best to not launch the staff wellness check-in quickly, as it will interrupt their screen for roster/attendance task.
When ending the drill or nearly doing so, please complete the roster event and staff wellness check in.
Release the drill.
