How can a school administrator assess a bomb threat?

0

First of all, a school administrator should never try to assess a bomb threat alone. If you are an administrator and you have received a bomb threat, or are notified of one from your staff, you want to automatically notify public safety and assess the threat from a viability standpoint and a strategic standpoint in concurrence with your public safety officials. Don’t try to do a job that is beyond your scope of training. Working with public safety, you look at the likelihood that there really is a device based on the information you have received, but you also look at it strategically. How can we respond, if there truly is a device, we are making it hard for someone to impact our children and staff with it, but we make that decision with fire, police and emergency management officials.
