In recent years, schools across the United States have adopted the Standard Response Protocols (SRP) as their safety framework, including St. Louis Park Public Schools. School safety has always been a top priority, and the growing number of incidents nationwide, ranging from school shootings to extreme weather events, prompted the district to seek a standardized, reliable, and effective approach to emergency preparedness.
After reviewing several protocols, district leaders found that the I Love U Guys Foundation provided a solution that was not only practical but also compassionate, rooted in the real-life experiences of families and schools affected by tragedy.
The SRP focuses on five key actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter. Each action is paired with concise language, allowing both staff and students to respond swiftly and effectively in an emergency.
