Friendly Safety Reminder
HSA Garland Administration would like to share a friendly reminder about student safety. Please know that in the case of bad weather, we will send updates on our website, Facebook page, and through school messenger to keep you apprised of the situation's impact on campus as soon as we know anything.
We will continue to do routinely scheduled drills for tornados/bad weather, fire, and lockdown situations. It is important to remember that we all work together to ensure that our campus is the safest place for our students to learn and grow. We encourage students and parents to always stay aware of surroundings, and report any suspicious or questionable activity to Principal Kolb or Mr. Clark immediately. We appreciate everyone working together to keep our school safe.
