2020-2021 Crowd Management

In the Occupancy Fire Safety portions of the Florida Fire Prevention Code (FFPC), there is a requirement for Crowd Managers in auditoriums and related assembly occupancies and there should be one Crowd Manager for every 250 occupants in attendance.
The goal of this is to provide knowledge to draw from when planning for events, managing them during normal operations and how to act if an emergency occurs. While school staff are clearly experienced in managing students’ activities, this training is also meant to address the needs of parents and visitors to OCPS facilities who may not be familiar with exits and other emergency features.
