Caring for Special Needs Students The schools in the Aberdeen School District prepare students with disabilities for disasters and/or emergencies through frequent training drills to alleviate safety problems in the of a real emergency. Teachers and principals’ responsibility has greatly increased as students move into least restrictive environment (LRE). To ensure the safety of differently abled students, we realize the critical need for principals and teachers to have emergency procedures for students who need assistance to evacuate. The following procedures should be followed: 1. Make sure students with disabilities understand and will carry out actions required in an emergency. Each school is required to provide 30 minutes of safety instruction and conducts at least one fire drill a month. 2. A team will be in place to assist students with disabilities during the emergency. A team of adults has been organized to help meet the need of the special children to ensure better student safety. This team is made up of teachers, and the school nurse. 3. Select a classroom that is close to an exit for location to place students with disabilities. Special attention is given to handicap accessibility of nearby exits to ease emergency evacuations for students in wheelchairs and braces.
Signs should also be posted informing them that persons failing to register may be considered trespassers and subject to prosecution. To encourage stronger ties between home and school and to utilize parent teacher conferences to enhance the benefits to students, principals are encouraged to have teachers send home copies of when they are available for conferences.
