Crisis Management
In the event of an emergency, the school district has a crisis management team on site. The team members can communicate with each other to ensure efficient handling of any emergency situation. In addition, the Board of Education has approved a School Safety and Security Plan, which is followed in the event of an emergency.
Staff and students are trained and participate in evacuation and other drills on a regularly scheduled basis. Security drills are held monthly.
School district buildings and grounds are equipped with electronic surveillance for the safety of students, staff, and campus visitors. Your actions may be recorded and preserved.
Examples of Safe Schools Practices at CMCSSSD
