When a fire alarm sounds, all occupants of the building in which the alarm is sounding are required to exit the facility and head to the assembly area designated on each building’s evacuation signage.
Assembly areas are placed beyond the collapse zone of a building. The collapse zone is defined as 1½ times the height of the building, including the porch (if a building has such a structure). All individuals who vacate a building during a fire alarm are required to be beyond the collapse zone of the building.
Students are to refrain from entering a building while an alarm is sounding. If the alarms or emergency personnel give other instructions, follow those instructions.
