School Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements (Most Recent Year)Pershing Elementary School was modernized during the 1999-2000 school year. The scope included interior, and some exteriorpainting, window system replacement, a new chiller, new doors with handicapped accessible hardware, restroom restoration, andelectrical infrastructure upgrade to provide for internet, cable, telephone, fire, and intrusion. Currently, there is sufficient space tohouse the student population. Discovery Club has a separate classroom. There is a site custodial staff that cleans the building, alongwith district support for major/minor repairs. The district provides gardening and landscape services on a regular schedule. Regularfire/emergency drills are held, and badges are required for all visitors and personnel. Field repair and irrigation system retrofit continueto be a concern. In the summer of 2005 the site received ventilator replacement to all rooms along with HVAC replacement to theoffice and library. The new parking lot was completed during the summer of 2009 including a new drive-through and drop-off area.The playgrounds were resealed and striped in September of 2010.The Board of Education and the Superintendent's policy is to ensure that all students are provided with a safe and well-maintainedlearning environment. The board approved resolutions in 1998 and 2002 to adequately fund maintenance activities and preserve therepairs and improvements funded by two facility bond measures. The school buildings, classrooms and grounds are safe, clean andfunctional. An inspection of the facility was conducted in October 2016 and determined that there were no unsafe conditions thatrequired emergency repairs. District maintenance staff ensures that the repairs necessary to keep the school in good repair andworking order are completed in a timely manner. A computer automated work order process is used to ensure efficient service andthat emergency repairs and health and safety repairs are given the highest priority. The Board of Education has adopted cleaningstandards and custodial staffing requirements for all schools in the district. This school meets the Board's standards for custodialstaffing and cleanliness. The school's custodians are trained in the proper use of cleaning chemicals and Integrated Pest Managementtechniques. They are managed day to day by the Principal with assistance from the district's maintenance department. The districtparticipates in the State School Deferred Maintenance Program, with funding allocated for major repair or replacement of existingschool building components. Typically, this includes roofing, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, electrical systems, interior or exteriorpainting, and floor systems.

School Safety Plan (School Year 2016-17)This school is linked directly to the San Juan Unified School District’s Safe Schools Program. In partnership with the Sacramento CountySheriff’s Department and the City of Citrus Heights Police Department (CHPD), each school becomes part of a safety zone that ispatrolled daily by a sheriff’s deputy or CHPD officer. The Deputy Sheriffs are assigned to specific schools which are identified bygeographic zones. The Deputy Sheriffs may move from one the geographic zone to another as safety needs dictate. The CHPD PoliceOfficers work identified schools within the City of Citrus Heights and respond as safety needs dictate. The Deputy Sheriff’s and/orCHPD Officers are dispatched to critical incidents via the Safe Schools Dispatcher, a law enforcement dispatcher or via a direct reportfrom a school staff member, school visitor or other person. In addition to daily support from a designated Sheriff’s deputy or CHPDofficer, this school is a part of the San Juan Unified School District’s Safe Schools Task Force, which is comprised of safety teams fromeach of the school sites. Each school safety team meets regularly to discuss safety issues, update their site emergency plans, and totake steps to be proactive in preventing various types of school-related safety issues. Law enforcement provides speakers to addressstudents, staff and community groups.Our safety team receives regular training through the Safe Schools Task Force. Each school site is responsible for updating theirComprehensive School Safety Plan (CSSP) by March 1st of every year. As part of the update, each school site meets at least once peryear with a law enforcement officer to review the CSSP and they hold a community meeting to review the CSSP. The CSSP must beapproved by the School Site Council before being submitted to the district Safe Schools Manager. Every San Juan classroom has astandardized “Safety Folder” which serves as a guide for teachers, includes the site specific crisis response procedures and a districtstandardized emergency flip chart. Each school site conducts and keeps a record of all fire drills, lock down drills, shelter in place drillsand/or earthquake drills up to or in excess of what is required by State law. This school meets or exceeds the Education Coderequirements for fire drills and lock down drills.Pershing School Safety plan was discussed, updated and approved by Faculty and School Site Council on March 6, 2015. PershingSchool Safety Plan's encompasses procedures and protocols for fire preparedness training, intruder's on campus, safe routes to andfrom classrooms, anti-bullying efforts and lock-down training for earthquake or natural disasters.D.
