Huskies in the Know
Week of May 21-23
Important Safety Information from Dr. V.
Dear Mansfield ISD Community:
The safety and security of our students and staff are paramount to Mansfield ISD.
We have no reason to believe that any of our schools have been threatened, but we want to take every precaution to ensure our students and staff are safe.
Immediately upon learning of the tragic shooting at Sante Fe ISD, we reached out to police leaders in the MISD community and asked them to partner with the MISD Police Department to ensure that there is an armed officer at each of our campuses for the remainder of this school year.
This spring, Mansfield ISD held discussions with students, staff, and community members to study ideas to make our schools safer. All of the suggestions raised from those meetings were presented to the district’s newly formed Safety Planning Committee, which includes parents, administrators, teachers, students, and community members.
The committee is currently evaluating every idea that was presented to make our schools safer and will be making recommendations to our school board for their consideration. Once the Board makes their final decisions, new safety measures will be in place next year to enhance the safety measures that are already in place in our district.
In the meantime, the Mansfield ISD Police Department will be receiving assistance from the Mansfield Police Department, the Tarrant County Constable’s Office, and the Tarrant County Sheriff's Department to have a police presence at each and every one of our campuses for the remainder of the school year.
Respectfully,
Jim Vaszauskas
Superintendent
