Common use of Effective Practices Clause in Contracts

Effective Practices. In situations where more than one building exists on school grounds, each building should be clearly identified, on all sides, with a building identifier, such as a number. All portables should be clearly identified as well. All exterior doors should be clearly identified – for example, as Doors A, B, C, and so on. All rooms within the building should be clearly marked with room numbers. This site plan should be consistent with the fire safety plan that school boards are required to provide to the fire department for emergency fire response. In addition, it is important to ensure that facility master keys are current and available for emergency service responders who may be involved in a search of the premises. It is particularly important that those elementary schools that have opted to lock their doors during the school day have a plan for making keys available to emergency services personnel.
