In case of an emergency evacuation, it is critical that every classroom and the administration maintain
a “go kit,” a self-contained and portable stockpile of emergency supplies, often placed in a backpack or
bucket and left in a readily accessible but secure location so that it is ready to “go.” The school safety plan
should reference the go kits and note the personnel to whom responsibility is delegated for stocking
and replenishing them. The contents of the go kits should reflect the safety team’s consideration of the
school’s circumstances and resources.
