Just as our district and schools have safety plans that are reviewed and update regularly, parents need to review their emergency plans as well.
- Be sure that updated emergency contact information is on file in your child's school. This is particularly important if you have had a change in phone numbers or email addresses.
- Be sure the school has the current information about your caregiver/guardian.
- Be sure your child knows what to do/where to go if there is an emergency and no one is at home.
- Be sure your child knows how to reach you at all times.
- Talk to your child about personal safety.
- Teach your child how to recognize danger signals.
- Communicate with your student's school counselor or HR Teacher if there is a concern regarding student safety or mental wellness.
- Discuss Cyber Safety with your student.
- Encourage your student, if they "see something, say something".
- Remember, always call 911 in an emergency.
Whoops, that's an error!
