Safety Is a Shared Responsibility.
No school is an island. When a threat emerges, the response depends entirely on how well your school, law enforcement, and first responders have prepared together. Level 3 evaluates the coordination, communication, and joint planning that determines whether that response works.
Most schools have emergency plans. Few have verified that those plans align with how their local police and first responders actually operate. Level 3 closes that gap — measuring the real-world readiness of your safety network, not just what's written in a binder.
The network Level 3 evaluates
Three Critical Partnerships.
Level 3 measures coordination across your three primary safety partners — each plays a distinct role in threat prevention and emergency response.
Law Enforcement
Local police, school resource officers, and campus liaison coordination — joint planning, communication protocols, and response alignment.
First Responders
Fire department and EMS coordination — evacuation planning, campus familiarity, medical response protocols, and joint drill participation.
Community Partners
Mental health agencies, community organizations, and district coordination — the extended network that supports prevention and recovery.
Assessment coverage
