Comprehensive School Safety Plan
California Education Code 32280-32289.5 outlines the requirements and information required for the Comprehensive School Safety Plan (CSSP), which is required to be reviewed and updated each year by all California public schools. The CSSP is a public document reviewed and updated each year by the Schoolsite Council (SSC). Many components of the CSSP are developed and updated by San José Unified district staff, who coordinate responses to safety-related issues across each of San José Unified’s schools, in consultation with other agencies, including the San José Police Department and San José Fire Department. These components are shared in the CSSP template provided to schools for their completion.
The CSSP contains an overview of the school’s holistic approach to safety. This plan explains the San José Unified emergency protocol and the steps that should be taken in a variety of emergency situations. Each school holds a public meeting to provide interested members of the public with the opportunity to express an opinion about the CSSP before they adopt their annual update.
To view the current CSSP and the details for each upcoming public meeting can be found on school websites, which are accessible here: https://www.sjusd.org/schools.
Public meeting dates for San José Unified schools during the 2025-2026 school year are listed below.
