Safety & Security
Our highly-trained safety and security staff monitor, protect and respond 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Our paramount duty is to create a safe learning environment where each child can thrive.
Safety and security staff support and assist in the training of all district staff to be prepared to respond to natural- or human-caused emergencies. We work with communications and school staff to inform families about emergencies as soon as we can with as much information as possible.
One of our district goals is to reduce out-of-school suspensions, but we will always remove a student from school when the safety of other students or staff is at risk. We are committed to creating a safe environment in every school. We put a high priority on building relationships with students. Our safety and security officers are proactive and help keep our district’s promise to know every student by name, strength, and need.
