Emergency Procedures
WISD has comprehensive emergency procedure plans in place. The Director of Safety and Security works closely with each campus and local public safety agencies on contingency planning and ensuring the proper response of necessary emergency services. This partnership stands ready to address any situation that may arise.
In the event of an emergency at your student’s school, WISD utilizes the Texas Standard Response Protocol for situations including:
Hold: Students are secured inside the school when there is an outside event within close proximity to the school
Secure: All perimeter doors are locked; nobody in or out
Lockdown: All perimeter doors are locked, and students are secured into rooms
Shelter: Students are secured inside the building in the event of a weather-related event
Evacuation: Students are evacuated away from the school to a safe location
During an emergency event, parents will be notified via the District’s notification system (Notify). Please make sure your student/family contact information is updated in Skyward as the School Messenger notification system utilizes the phone numbers stored in kyward. Please note that you must contact the school office in order to update your contact information stored in Skyward.
