Summary
Assistant Superintendent White presented building‑level emergency response plans (confidential) for board preview and adoption; the board approved the 2025–26 plans unanimously. Plans are confidential because they contain site‑specific emergency procedures and templates.
The Kenmore Town of Tonawanda Union Free School District Board of Education adopted its 2025–26 building‑level emergency response plans at the Aug. 5 meeting after Assistant Superintendent White presented the documents for board preview.
Why it matters: Building‑level plans contain site‑specific emergency procedures, contact and facility details that guide administrators, staff and first responders during incidents; the materials are confidential because they include tactical safety information.
What the board did: Assistant Superintendent White said the district previously reviewed the district‑level response plans and had made building‑level plans available to board members for confidential preview. Superintendent Samuels recommended adoption; Leanne moved the resolution, Fred seconded and the board voted unanimously to adopt the 2025–26 building‑level emergency response plans.
Scope and confidentiality: White reiterated that the building plans are confidential because they contain specific emergency procedures and were provided for board review only. Implementation will be managed by building administrators and district safety staff.
