Orange County school districts should make sure they and their individual schools have a SEMS equivalent plan, and that these should be submitted to the Orange County Department of Education/Superintendent of School for review. Disagree. Response: The recommendation to submit plans to the Orange County Department of Education will not be implemented, as it is not warranted. It is the responsibility of each school district to review their own school site safety plan, as required by the California Education Code Section 32288. It is not the responsibility of the Orange County Department of Education. The Cypress School District will make sure that we, and our individual school sites, have a SEMS equivalent plan for the 2007/08 school year.
