The present study aimed to report on how schools responded after the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011 from the perspective of school management and to discuss crisis management and disaster prevention systems for special needs schools. This survey discovered that four schools served as shelters in one form or another. Yet, none of the schools had stockpile of food and school staff therefore made every effort to address the issues of food, water, blankets, and sanitation. A review of crisis management and disaster prevention systems for children with special needs should be undertaken in cooperation with government administrative offices.
