LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Christopher J. Hauge, CSBA
School Facilities Engineer
Dorchester County Public Schools

Welcome to the 67th Annual Fall Conference for the Association of School
Business Officials for Maryland and the District of Columbia! Our message
today is “School Safety and Security is Everyone’s Business”, no matter what
facet of school business or instructional support you represent. Whether you
are based at a school, Central Office, other support facilities or are transient;
today will engage on the most important topic in education today - Student and
Teacher Safety and Security.

Our day is dedicated to promoting a mindset of proactive student and
teacher safety and security. We will be discussing best practices; from well known,
proven strategies to emerging, evolving or current thinking from peers and
experts in your field. Today you will:

• Hear from your peers in every aspect of school business operations
about the proactive measures being used to increase or enhance the safety
of our students and teachers.

• Together we will see how a respected district business leadership team
implemented a complete, modern and engaging safety program for all
employees across the organization in an integrated fashion.

• Enjoy the company of your peers and recognized experts. Use every
opportunity-networking time, classes, lunch, transition times, general
sessions, etc. to maximize networking opportunities, find a mentor/
mentee and to discuss lessons learned, successes and challenges. Who else
knows your challenges better than your peers? Tap into this community
of wisdom.

• What does all of this mean? Listen to and understand the insights
and inspiration borne from very real, extreme loss to fully understand
why rapidly changing expectations on student, teacher and school
security issues are the highest priority facing our industry and
community.

Today will be powerful. You and your role in Supporting Excellence will
be affirmed. For many, thinking will be confirmed. For others, you may be
questioning preconceived or established norms or what you think is a unique
challenge. Let today’s experience and your peers inspire you. Consider taking an
active leadership role in your organization’s student, teacher and school security
conversation as appropriate. After all, School Safety and Security IS Everyone’s
Business!

Christopher J. Hauge

LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Jeffrey LaPorta, CPPB
Executive Director

Association of School Business Officials
of Maryland and the District of Columbia

Do more with less. It’s a phrase school business officials are all too familiar
with. We’ve been doing this for so long, it has now become the norm. We’ve
learned to adapt to this new work culture that required us to either innovate or
almost certainly fail. SBOs are committed to the success of their school districts
so failure was never an option for anyone. Just as we are adjusting to this new
lean operating standard, we are continually being required to do even more.
More Federal guidelines. More State reporting requirements. More internal
demands. And frighteningly, more genuine safety concerns within each of our
districts.

A number of years ago, the security of the school campus was solely the
responsibility of the security department. They might spend their day policing
order, addressing vandalism or issues that would likely not lead to significant
personal peril. Today the threats we face on campus are significantly more
serious. So serious that they are no longer solely the responsibility of the security
department staff. Today, school safety and security is everyone’s business.

SBOs need to know that regardless of the department your job description
assigns you to, or irrespective of how close or far you work from the classroom,
the safety of the students and those around you is now also part of your
responsibility. Is this another item added on to your already overloaded “do
more with less” situation? Yes it is, but SBOs are a committed group that would
never shy away from their obligation. I’m sure our group will be vigilant to keep
our students and staff safe, and the steps you are taking here today at our 67th
Annual Fall Conference will assist you. Welcome to the conference, and stay safe!

2018 FALL CONFERENCE

EDUCATION SESSIONS

9:10 - 10:10 AM

FOOD AND NUTRITION: “Bioterrorism and Food Safety”

This presentation describes:

- The importance of food defense: For the safety and security of students
and school employees, schools should implement food defense measures to
prevent intentional, as well as unintentional, contamination. There is limited
awareness of food defense for schools, and it is important that schools use local
planning and communication with their community partners to cut through
the complexity.

· Complexities of the school food chain: There are many complex layers to
school foods—where foods come from, how foods get to schools, intervention
points, and who has jurisdiction. Food processing, distribution, storage and
transport chain is complex and differs across states and the nation.

· Food defense best practices: Schools should require their suppliers and
warehouses to have food defense plans to minimize risk along the entire supply
chain. When intentional contamination is suspected, law enforcement, health
departments and emergency management agencies need to work with schools
as a part of school or school district emergency operations.

· Where to find free food safety and food defense resources available to schools.

Room: A111

Speakers: Beth Brewster, Food Services Coordinator, Caroline County Public
Schools; Dr. Regina L. Tan, Director, Office of Food Safety, SNAS, FNS,
USDA; and Marianne Elbertson, Senior Food Defense Analyst, USDA-FSIS-
ODIFP

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: “Be Proactive: Plan for the Unpredictable”

This session will demonstrate how the latest Reality Capture technologies
are being used for critical safety preparedness initiatives. Visual technologies
present a proactive tool to assist in planning for unpredictable situations in
public areas. Come see how mapping of 2D imagery combined with 3D
immersive visual technology provides an interactive resource that supports
safety planning teams.

Room: A113

Speaker: Jason Donahoe, Senior Regional Partner, Multivista Mid-Atlantic

2018 FALL CONFERENCE

EDUCATION SESSIONS

9:10 - 10:10 AM

FACILITIES: “Actively Mitigating Damages, Prior to a Threat
Entering the Building”

Throughout our nation, there have been increasing reports of tragic events
in schools and public buildings. Secured vestibules, cameras, security cards,
etc., while necessary, are no longer the only focus to avoiding these threats.
Therefore, methods for improving security needs to include everyone vested
in student safety. Being prepared is the first key to mitigating damages during
catastrophes—it may help to save your life and others!
Please join our dynamic panel of experts as they discuss best practices,
including Crime Prevention Thru Environmental Design and others, for
improving safety and security from the exterior of the facility, prior to a threat
entering the building.
Room: A300
Speakers: Maryland State Fire Marshall’s Office; Maryland Center for Public
School Safety; Annapolis First Responders; Baltimore County Public Schools;
Fairfax County Public Schools; and Crabtree, Rohrbaugh Architects.

SAFETY AND SECURITY: “Active Shooter Training - Avoid | Deny | Defend™”

Over the years we’ve seen response times shorten and the capabilities of law
enforcement increase. As a result of increased public awareness, many citizens
have asked what individuals can do to protect themselves and reduce the
dangers faced during one of these events. Avoid | Deny |Defend™ has been
developed as an easy to remember method for individuals to follow. As we’ve
seen, hiding and hoping isn’t a very effective strategy.

Frederick County Public Schools

2018 FALL CONFERENCE

EDUCATION SESSIONS

9:10 - 10:10 AM

FACILITIES AND HUMAN RESOURCES: “Understanding Cybersecurity Best
Practices for Facility Control Systems and Data Management”

Every day there are new reports of cybersecurity threats, often resulting in data
theft and ransomware attacks that cost millions. The common conduit for these
attacks: a building's control system. It's no longer a question of if your facility's
control system will have a cybersecurity attack, but when. With the building
automation system market following ASHRAE's Standard 135 for BACnet
open protocol, what can be done to help reduce the risk of attack?
This PD session will address the steps necessary to protect a control system
from both customer design and specification perspectives. Learn how a risk-
based approach to cybersecurity can effectively manage and minimize cyber
vulnerability.
Room: A302
Speakers: Tyler Haak, US Northeast Business Development Manager,
Schneider Electric, and Bryan Buckner, Regional Partner Expert, Schneider
Electric

drivers and students may face on any given day. Participants will discuss how to
mediate those potential threats to maintain the safety of all parties involved.

“Building a Complete Safety Program to Reduce Risk. Developing
and Managing a School (District) Safety Preparedness Strategy”

In this session, we will explore pragmatic ideas you can utilize in making your
schools safe in relation to prevention, preparedness, response and recovery. We
will focus on prevention and preparedness ideas as those will determine how
effective your response is to a crisis. While we will touch on prevention and
preparedness initiatives related to compliance, safety and social and emotional
areas, the primary focus will be on active assailant events as we explore potential
drivers as well as preventing and preparing for the events themselves.

Administrative Services, Caroline County Public Schools; and Tom
Strasburger, Vice President, PublicSchoolWORKS

“MEMA Contract Compliance for Reimbursements”

When an emergency hits, it’s a scramble to pull resources together to address the
need for immediate response. Should this emergency be eligible for MEMA
reimbursement? It is also important to ensure that you are poised to properly and
successfully apply for that reimbursement. Are you safe and fiscally protected?
