The Standard Response Protocol (SRP) is a set of research-based actions/drills designed to prepare students, staff and parents for emergency situations.
Throughout the school year, all students and staff members participate in various drills to educate students on the five possible actions of the SRP: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate and Shelter.
Signs detailing the protocol are posted in each classroom and in various common areas throughout our schools. Our hope is that these signs serve as a visible reminder, not only for students and staff, but also for visitors should they hear an announcement of a specific action in the protocol over the public address system.
One of our safety objectives is to practice the standard response protocol drills repeatedly throughout each school year in order to create a shared language among all those in the Dunlap Community Unit School District #323 Community. Dunlap works collaboratively with Peoria County Sheriff's Department, Peoria City Police, Peoria and Dunlap Fire Departments, IEMA, and other emergency service providers to ensure everyone is following the same emergency protocols and procedures in our schools.
