Kids Ministry Fire Escape Plans:

Student Center:

(includes Classroom Numbers 201-216)

Below are Fire Escape Instructions for areas of the Student Center.

For All Rooms:

Fire Escape Plan A:  Safely exit the building using the nearest possible exit door and use exit signs to safely exit the building.  Then take your class to your safety zone (the light pole at the parking lot in front of the student center in the front of the church).

Fire Escape Plan B:  If you cannot safely escape using Fire Plan A, Then if possible, safely escape through one of the windows in the room.  Then take your class to your safety zone (the light pole at the parking lot in front of the student center in the front of the church).

ONCE AT THE SAFETY ZONE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL CHILDREN AND STAY THERE UNTIL YOU RECEIVE FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS.  IF YOU ARE MISSING SOMEONE, IF IT IS SAFE, GO TO THE NEAREST EXTERIOR DOOR AT THE LAST PLACE THEY WERE SEEN AND CALL THEIR NAME.
