Program Implementation
Each year, administrators review emergency procedures, security concerns and safety precautions for its students, families and staff. Also, schools participate in routine drills to help students feel more comfortable in the event of an actual emergency.
All campuses are equipped with a SchoolSafeID Kiosk to be used when checking a student in late and/or early. Individuals checking a student out must have a state issued ID to complete check-out.
We encourage parents to know our procedures and feel free to contact us if you have any safety or security concerns. If you have information about a threat to our safety, we encourage you to report it to our Superintendent's office and know your information will remain anonymous.
