Board approves districtwide comprehensive safety plan with ALICE training and naloxone
Summary
The Auburn Union Elementary School District board approved a single districtwide comprehensive safety plan that adds an active‑shooter response (ALICE), naloxone boxes on campuses and behavioral threat assessment training; trustees asked about implementation timelines and redacted operational details.
The board voted to approve a single districtwide comprehensive safety plan that consolidates site plans into one document aligned with Ed Code and California Department of Education guidance. Superintendent Brittany Meyer told trustees the plan adds a new active‑shooter section based on the ALICE model and establishes district procedures for naloxone availability and behavioral threat assessment training.
Meyer said the plan standardizes maps, evacuation routes and procedures and explained that sensitive operational details (evacuation routes and site‑specific maps) are redacted from the public version for safety reasons. “On page 23… Procedures to prepare for active shooter,” she said, “this is a new portion… It talks about our plan.” She described an April professional development day to train staff with APD and Placer County Sheriff SROs as ALICE trainers and said classified staff will receive training in August.
Trustees sought specifics about naloxone placement and staff training. Meyer said each campus will have one mounted box containing two doses, similar to an AED, and that the district nurse will offer voluntary naloxone trainings. On behavioral threat assessment, Meyer said site principals, counselors and school psychologists have begun Cal OES‑led training and the district will form a team to review and refine threat assessment documents.
The motion to adopt the plan passed on a voice vote after discussion. The superintendent said the district will incorporate feedback from school site councils, law enforcement and the district safety committee into an ongoing quarterly review process.
