 Schools: A Duty to Protect

Since Thomas Jefferson founded public education for the citizens of the United States, schools have been charged with the safety of our children in their care - a duty to protect. 

Teachers and administrators have a responsibility to anticipate dangers and to take precautions to protect their students from those dangers. 

Be Ready Schools is here to help schools and administrators create and implement plans, protocols and procedures to ensure the safety of students and staff.
