    West Chester Area School District

    Educating and Inspiring Our Students to Achieve Their Personal Best

    • WCASD
    • Hazardous Materials Emergency Plan
    • Dear Parents and Community,

      The West Chester Area School District is committed to keeping our school safe. We work closely with all eight of our municipalities, fire departments, hospitals, police departments, emergency management teams, and County Hazardous Materials teams to coordinate a response plan in the unlikely event of a hazardous materials emergency.  Please click here to  review information about our plan. 

      We will continue to update this webpage with the most recent correspondence regarding this topic.

      Sincerely,
      Dr. Jim Scanlon
