MICHIGAN STANDARDIZED SCHOOL EMERGENCY RESPONSE TERMINOLOGY

Beginning with the 2026-27 school year, the following terminology must be utilized by public schools, nonpublic schools, and local law enforcement agencies in response to certain situations that occur in or at a school building operated by the public school or nonpublic school.

Standardized Response Terminology (SRT)

HOLD – Must be used when students need to be kept in a specific location to allow school staff and first responders unencumbered access to hallways and other areas of a school building to respond to an incident.

SECURE – Must be used when it is determined that a lockdown is not necessary but heightened security is needed because of a potential external threat. Under secure mode, instruction may continue in a normal manner, but access to the school building, movement throughout the building, and student activities must be limited or monitored.

LOCKDOWN – Must be used when there is an existing threat in or at a school building or a threat is expected to arrive there imminently.

EVACUATE – Must be used when students and school staff need to move rapidly but systematically from one area to another where they can be protected from a threat.

SHELTER – Must be used when conditions are safer inside a school building than they are outside the building. These conditions include certain severe weather conditions or hazardous materials incidents that are in close proximity to the school building.
