CHS Emergency Procedures

As our national security level rises, please be assured that Collierville High School does have a Crisis Management Plan in place to respond to any type of disaster that can be anticipated. Teachers have specific instructions for different situations and students have been adequately trained and informed as to how to follow the instructions of their teachers. For security reasons our full plan is not published for the public.

Should a natural disaster or other emergency occur, parents will be provided instructions and information through this site and the news media. Parental cooperation in following those instructions will be vital in ensuring the safety of our students.

Parents will not be permitted to enter the building to locate and take their children without following the instructions provided. Pick up locations and procedures will be announced as dictated by the prevailing circumstances. If necessary, some or all students may be taken to an alternative location for parent pickup. Students will only be permitted to leave with the listed guardian or emergency contact person listed in our records. Parents may wish to update their contacts with the school. In the case of a noncritical crisis in which school is dismmised early, every effort will be made to provide parents with adequate notification through the media.

Parents are asked NOT TO TELEPHONE THE SCHOOL in the event of a disaster. If the telephones are working, we will need them to make calls to emergency agencies, news agencies and school system support personnel.

In any type of emergency, our first priority will be to preserve the safety of each and every student at Collierville High School.

If you have specific questions about our emergency preparedness, please contact Dr. Tim Setterlund, Principal (tsetterlund@scsk12.org).
