TORNADO. Age appropriate procedures followed in the event of a tornado warning are prominently displayed in each classroom. Children are not sent home while a tornado warning is in effect. Tornado drills are conducted regularly and recorded on the same Diocesan form used for recording fire drills. Local schools must comply with the directives regarding fire drills as stated in the Illinois School Code and other statutes, laws and regulations. Schools conduct at least the minimum number of fire drills required by local/state fire codes. The first recorded drill is held as soon as possible but no later than two weeks after school begins. The date of drills and the amount of time necessary to evacuate the building is recorded on the approved Diocesan form and kept on file at the local school. Age appropriate visual directions for emergency exits are posted in each classroom. In order to assure no fire hazards are present in the building, the principal makes regular inspections of the premises. Fire alarm pull boxes, sprinkling systems, heat or smoke detectors, emergency lighting systems and fire extinguishers are checked regularly.
