Emergency Communications

We understand the importance of timely communication to families when there is a school emergency. In an emergency situation, our first priority will always be to ensure the safety of those on campus and then we will work to provide accurate information to families as quickly as possible. Communication to families for most emergency situations will come from the district office. It is important to understand that there are many moving pieces as a school emergency unfolds. Oftentimes, we are working with law enforcement and emergency personnel to provide accurate information that does not compromise student safety. We ask for your patience as we work through the appropriate procedures to communicate relevant information to families. if there is an emergency, we ask that you please do not come to the school, unless directed to do so. This is for the safety of everyone involved.In some cases, we may need to evacuate the school. Reunification sites have been established, but we do not publicize those locations prior to an emergency in order to maintain student safety. We will inform families of the time and place to pick up their child through the district communication channels.
