The Big Five Increases School Safety

Principals, teachers, and other school staff work closely with public safety officials using The Big Five emergency response protocols to ensure that all children are safe at school. All schools have detailed emergency plans and school employees are trained in these protocols.

What is The Big Five?

The Big Five is a common emergency plan adopted by all San Mateo County school districts and law enforcement agencies. Created by San Mateo County's Coalition for Safe Schools and Communities, The Big Five protocol supports high-quality training for school staff and community members and ensures clear channels of communication with schools, first responders, parents, and community members should an emergency occur.
