School Evacuation Maps

How evacuation maps benefit your school

As an integral part of any emergency action plan (EAP), school evacuation maps ensure swift and orderly evacuation in case of emergencies. Empower staff and students by indicating critical information, such as evacuation routes, assembly points, safety equipment and emergency exits. Internationally required, school evacuation maps increase occupant security by reducing panic and minimizing injuries in your educational facility. Stay prepared and meet fire code requirements with accurate and user friendly evacuation maps.

Evacuation map features to consider

Many local fire codes mandate the posting of emergency evacuation diagrams throughout public buildings. The placement, size, and content of these signs will depend on the facility’s Emergency Action Plan/Fire Plan and local fire ordinance requirements. Many buildings, particularly dormitories, should consider including a mini-site map on evacuation diagrams to indicate the designated “Assembly Area” or “Meeting Area” for post-evacuation gathering. Schools in areas that experience extreme weather should consider identifying emergency shelter locations on their diagrams. All evacuations maps are carefully designed to meet the unique safety requirements of the building.

Think about mounting your evacuation maps in high-traffic areas such as near classroom doors, hallways, exits, and common areas like cafeterias and gymnasiums.

Sign location

Indicate essential safety equipment on evacuation maps to help staff and students respond effectively, and quickly during emergencies.

Safety Equipment

Think about indicating the post-evacuation assembly area on your school’s evacuation map. Direct students and staff to a safe, designated location where attendance can be taken during evacuation.

Assembly Area

Ensure the safety of staff and students during emergencies like tornadoes or extreme storms, by clearly marking shelters to reduce confusion and enable quick, life-saving evacuations.

Severe Weather Shelter

Print your school evacuation maps

Choose a sign material that fits your environment—Palboard (PVC) is ideal for high-traffic areas due to its durability and affordability. For a premium, long-lasting option, especially in schools, consider our Acrylic or White Aluminum signs.
