District-Wide Safety and Emergency Management Plan: 2025-2026
The Tarrytown UFSD District-wide Safety & Emergency Management Plan serves as a comprehensive framework for preventing, responding to, and recovering from emergencies that could affect the district’s students, staff, and community. Developed in accordance with New York State’s Project SAVE legislation, the plan outlines policies and procedures designed to protect health and safety, reduce risks, and ensure coordinated action during crises. It defines roles and responsibilities, communication protocols, and safety measures for all schools within the district while aligning with local, county, and state emergency response systems.
The document also ensures compliance with state mandates such as Alyssa’s Law and Desha’s Law, emphasizing proactive training, emergency preparedness, and trauma-informed safety practices. Updated annually and reviewed through a public comment process, the plan reflects the district’s commitment to continuous improvement, collaboration with law enforcement and emergency responders, and maintaining a safe and supportive learning environment for all members of the Tarrytown Schools community.
