School District of Prairie Farm

Key Protocol

1.       Personnel who are issued keys must sign a memorandum of agreement concerning key use.

2.       Staff will be responsible for understanding how the alarm system works, including:

q       How to turn on and off the alarm. This involves setting the alarm, entering a confidential code to do so, and doing the same to disarm it.

q       Maintaining the confidential code number.

The process:

1.       Enter through the west side of the building (high school side).

2.       You will enter three doors, the last being the high school office.

3.       If the alarm is on, you will hear the alarm sound with a steady beeping.

4.       Disarm the alarm immediately. Enter the code. If you enter the wrong code by accident, wait a few seconds and try again.

5.       Once the alarm is set, please sign the clip board indicating time of day, etc.

6.       If the alarm is not set, do not set it. Check the clipboard in the office to see if anyone else is in the building. If no one else is in the building, assume the alarm has been turned off for a reason.

7.       Before you leave the building, please check the clipboard to check whether anyone else is in the building. If someone else is in the building, do not set the alarm.

8.        If you are the only one in the building and are exiting, please sign out on the clipboard first (having all of your things ready), Enter   the code to activate the alarm. You will have 30 seconds to leave the building.
