Safety Committee
The Lazar Safety Committee comprised of a faculty based group who
meet monthly to review current safety procedures, introduce
new safety procedures, and recommend safety policy. Through a
team approach, the committee has acted as a change agent and
introduced several new procedures.
Crisis Intervention Procedures and Make-a Plan
Students will work with their advisory group and their family to
Make-a-Plan in accordance with
procedures set forth by
www.ready.gov and the Department of Homeland Security. Through a grant
from Morris County
Crime Stoppers all Lazar students will be given a small plastic
wallet during the 2006-2007 school year. As a part of the
Make-a-Plan project students will carry these wallets containing
pertinent information helpful in times of crisis. More
information will be sent home with students as this project unfolds.

Psychological First Aid
The New Jersey Star Ledger recently reported that although
ninety-six percent of all school districts in the state of New
Jersey have developed emergency guidelines or crisis plans, few
schools actually exercise or update them. As a part of Lazar’s
continued effort to emphasize safety, faculty and staff were
introduced to upcoming strategies during a whole school in-service
which incorporated new procedures into our emergency and crisis
management plan. Faculty and staff learned the concepts of
administering simple “Psychological First Aid” to persons in need
through the incorporation of some basic knowledge and tools enabling
a "Connect-Protect-Direct" approach.
