(AP) -An audit of Wisconsin school safety plans finds most of them adequately cover safety guidelines and procedures. But the nonpartisan Legislative Audit Bureau finds in a report Wednesday that some plans have relatively little information about how to handle certain situations.The report says only about half of plans reviewed had guidelines and policies for non-classroom emergencies other than bus accidents and field trips. The audit also says about half of plans had guidelines for parent-student reunification, and of those that did many were not detailed procedures.
Last year, the state awarded $94 million in school safety grants across the state.
