This paper reports on a project that studied emergency operations plans in 10 sample schools, in order to determine their comprehensiveness and content and to assess various other aspects of those plans, including emergency preparedness, student and staff comprehension of protocols, and how preparedness could be improved.
This report on emergency operation plan (EOP) implementation in 10 schools describes a project that examined 10 schools using a phased, mixed-methods study design. The paper describes the project’s four phases; asserts the power and importance of EOPs; lays out the project methodology; presents the study results, implications of findings, and recommendations for schools; and provides concluding remarks as well as advice for future research and policy practice. The Appendices include a list of resources used to inform the EOP Assessment Rubric; a condensed EOP Rubric, including 80 items within nine discrete sections; and school scores for each component of the EOP Assessment.
