Report to the police any unusual and suspicious activity such as strangers hanging around the church and preschool, particularly around the children, someone taking pictures of the children or attempting to befriend them in an unusual manner.
If you receive report of gun fire, locate all children and adults in the building.
Lock all doors and windows, close all shades and blinds.
Instruct all children and adults to lie on the floor, crawl away from the windows and attempt to move to a more secure place.
Remain calm and call 9-1-1 for help.
If a threatening situation arises, all employees, students, or congregation members should immediately flee from the location of the confrontation and never attempt to rescue others from the situation. They risk becoming additional hostages or victims.
