The East Providence High School community believes that excellence in
education is the pathway to the future. Our goal is to instill a passion for
learning and a sense of responsibility in all students. Teachers working
with families ensure that every student’s transition to society is personal
and meaningful. Students, administrators, faculty, and staff are part of a
culture promoting a safe environment to explore new ideas, meet new
challenges, respect diversity and contribute to the community.

| Emergency Warning Codes |
 |
“RED”
Indicates a very serious or dangerous situation exists.
Selected personnel are to report to the office and all
teachers are to secure their classrooms. All equipment is to
be turned off. All doors are to be locked. Students are
instructed to stay away from windows and doors and to sit
quietly on the floor. A code “Red” takes precedence over a
fire alarm. The crisis is not over until the principal or
known official announces the end of the crisis by intercom
or courier.
“YELLOW”
Indicates a situation exists calling for orderly evacuation
of the school building. Each interior door is to be closed
after the room has been checked and found to be clear.
Teachers are to keep their classes intact in a predetermined
safe area.
“BLUE”
Indicates a disaster of some type has occurred. Teachers are
to remain with their class indoors and await news from a
courier.
“WHITE”
Indicates a danger exists in the community. All exterior
doors are to be locked and monitored until the emergency
subsides.
“GREEN”
Universal all clear signal. Normal classroom activity may
resume.
