Walk the student’s day. Mark every place.

Go from arrival to dismissal with the student and mark each place. The summary shows how much of their day they reach on their own, what blocks them, and whether the evacuation plan and passing time work.

every place the day goes
Drawn for this page. The check follows one student through their own day, from arrival to the last bell.

How to use it

  1. Start a check with a code or initials and the date you walked it.
  2. Walk the student’s real schedule with them, not a floor plan.
  3. Mark each place on their own, with help, barrier or not part of their day.
  4. Write what each barrier is and who can fix it.
  5. Check the evacuation plan and passing time, then bring the to-do list to the team.

What the check is for

Why one student’s day

A building can meet a standard on paper and still block one student: a heavy door, a crowded line, a playground surface. Walking the actual day finds what a general audit misses.

Evacuation

Students who cannot use stairs or move quickly need an individual plan, known by every adult who might be with them, and practiced in drills.

What it is not

Not a building audit and not a legal compliance review. Barriers it finds go to the IEP or Section 504 team and the people who can fix them.
