School Safety Planning Manual, 2008
The School Safety Planning Manual: Essential Resources for Developing a Comprehensive Safe School Plan developed to assist the K–12 public school system to create and implement safety plans in compliance with both state and federal laws. The 2007 Washington State legislature radically altered existing laws dealing with school safety plans, requiring a range of specific elements to each school’s plan, and the processes which must be developed and maintained to facilitate these plans.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS AND SAFETY AT SCHOOLS: RECOMMENDED GUIDELINES
This report contains the recommended school site planning guidelines for site selection, general site requirements and design, school bus-related design and operations, parent drop-off/pick-up zones, pedestrian and bicycle access, driveways, turn lanes, traffic control, signing and marking, and parking. The research team based these guidelines on a comprehensive review of existing guidelines and the results of field studies at school sites in Texas. The report documents the recommended guidelines and best practices for transportation operations and safety within school sites – focusing on the parent and bus drop-off/pick-up zones. The report also contains a site plan review checklist tool that TxDOT engineers and school district representatives can use to facilitate good site planning and design.

IOWA SCHOOL SAFETY GUIDE 2012
This document was developed for the schools of Iowa to use as a template to enhance current school safety programs; the creation of this document was a partnered effort at the state level between the aforementioned agencies. The purpose of this document is to give school districts and individual schools a planning resource to use when creating their school safety plans. Ultimately, schools can decide how much of this document they would like to incorporate into their current plan. The original document was created by the Minnesota Department of Homeland Security, and its use was granted to Iowa Homeland Security in 2011. Iowa pulled together a panel of experts to make this document specific to Iowa’s schools, and laws.
It’s important to note the partnership created by this document is intended to continue through information sharing in relation to critical assets, infrastructure protection, and school safety. Iowa Homeland Security is a representative in the Iowa Department of Public Safety, Division of Intelligence Fusion Center. This partnership allows for streamlined information sharing to the critical infrastructure owner/operators across the state. The current plan for information sharing is through the Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management, Threat Information and Infrastructure Protection Program (TIIPP) to the Iowa Department of Education for processing and dissemination statewide. Depending on the type of information being released it could be specific to a school, district or the education sector statewide.
