How To Initiate A Practice Drill
Following an emergency drill on your campus, a reunification drill can be conducted. This provides staff an opportunity to engage with the system and familiarize themselves with the reunification process.
- Click on the red Report Emergency button in the lower left corner of the school portal and select Emergency Reunification. From the Pikmykid Staff App, select the Reunification icon from the homepage.
- Then select the plan for the type of reunification drill that is being conducted.
- Next, create a Staff Notification; staff will receive an email and a text message.
- When initiating a practice drill check the box to confirm This Is A Drill and click Next. Checking the box for a drill means that parents will NOT be notified.
- Then click Start A Drill. A pop-up will appear to confirm the school has entered reunification mode and staff will be able to begin the reunification process.
- Once the drill is complete, the drill should be terminated from the dashboard.
During an emergency reunification drill, certain features and abilities of the portal are disabled until the drill has been terminated.
