The Ohio General Assembly passed Senate
Bill #1 that requires all school districts in Ohio to develop
comprehensive Critical Incident Plans to deal with all potential
emergencies.
The Ohio Emergency Management Agency and
the Ohio Department of Education have worked collectively
to assist local school districts with this planning. One result
was a recommendation that local school districts develop a
close working relationship with their county Emergency Management
Agency (EMA).
Locally, the Allen County EMA is working
on a continuing basis with all Allen County and Lima City
schools to develop these important Critical Incident Plans,
as well as, as offering assistance with staff in-service training.
