This section deals with another priority for schools. Risk management is the ongoing process of carefully planning and monitoring activities that could carry the possibility of risk or injury to people and facilities. Foresight is needed to prevent possible injury or harm to students, and to mitigate the damage or loss of property or school assets.
This Standard seeks to ensure that the physical plant and grounds are adequate to support the mission and program of the school and are maintained in a way that promotes a safe and healthy environment. The school will have established and effectively implemented guidelines and procedures that promote a safe and healthy school environment.
