Safety and Security
As the school year begins, new safety measures are in place to ensure the safety of students and staff. Employees and students across Lubbock ISD will follow these guidelines:
- Classroom doors are to remain closed and locked during the school day. Research shows that a locked door is the most effective deterrent to violent acts.
- All Lubbock ISD staff will visibly wear name badges and new Standard Response Protocol (SRP) badges. The SRP badge will be worn with the employee badge at all times. It contains the five responses and key contacts used in the event of an emergency.
- Visitors must utilize Lobby Guard and visibly wear visitor badges.
As part of the new safety measures implemented across the district, each Lubbock ISD campus and facility will be provided with communication materials explaining the updates including posters, handouts and more to inform staff, students, and families. Campuses also completed required tasks and training to increase school safety.
Meet our new teachers!
