Here, you will learn how to use the Public Safety Drills application to manage and report safety drill records for compliance.

  1. To access full data and administrative features, you must be logged in at www.munetrix.com with specific permissions issued by your district office.
  2. In the My Apps drawer to the left or at the bottom of the Munetrix Homepage, click the Public Safety Drills icon.

  1. Click the Schedules Tab at the top of the page.

  1. You will see a list of each building in the School District. 
  2. Use the Name field and click Search to locate a particular building. 
  3. To view the prepopulated placeholder records for a building's public safety drill schedule, click the building name. Scheduled drill placeholders are automatically configured to meet the state’s minimum safety-drill requirements and are private to authorized users. (Records become visible to the public only after they are marked Complete and Published.) 
Munetrix automatically generates new drill schedules with drill placeholders each July for the next school year. Users may edit the scheduled drill dates, times, and other details.
  1. Additional scheduled or unscheduled drill records can be manually added by clicking the + Add New button. To schedule a drill, complete each of the required fields (marked with an asterisk).
  • If adding a drill placeholder for a planned drill (e.g., a performance issue or additional drill practice), be sure to complete the drill record AFTER the drill.
  • If adding a drill placeholder for a false alarm, the entire drill record must be completed.

  1. Click the Return to All Schedule button in the top left to return to the Schedules tab page.
  2. Drill Type: Select the type of drill from the dropdown menu.
  3. Publish: Select Yes or No from the dropdown menu. The log will not appear in public reports until the Publish field is set to Yes and the Date scheduled is less than the current date.
  4. Date Scheduled/Time Scheduled: Enter the Date and Time (hh:mm) the drill is scheduled.

  1. Optionally, Execution Duration (mm:ss): How long in minutes and seconds did it take to evacuate or lock down the building? And the Number of Participants: Approximate number of participants.
  2. When Executed: Select whether this drill was during regular class time, at lunch, recess, or between classes from the dropdown menu. Some states require that a safety drill be conducted outside regular class time.

  1. If appropriate, enter the Emergency Management Coordinator (EMC), who will be notified, or the Public Safety Officer (i.e, Fire Marshall, Police Chief) if known. If not, you may wait until the drill is complete and then update the record.

Important: Do not enter the authorizer’s name and title, or check the "Authorization" box, yet—this will prematurely mark the drill as complete and make it publicly visible to anyone accessing the drill homepage report on the Munetrix District Homepage.

*The System will automatically generate a signature based on the Authorizer’s Name.

 

  1. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click Save. 
  1. The newly scheduled safety drill has been saved and updated to the following in the Status column of the Drill data table: 
Scheduled.
Late (the date has passed without data entry.
Performed and Published.
  1. Click Edit or Delete in the Actions column to enter additional information or delete the record.
