Information about Safety
During the 88th Regular Session of the Texas Legislature, House Bill 3 (HB 3), was passed. House Bill 3 (HB 3), effective September 1, 2023, adds the new Texas Education Code section 37.0814. This new law requires each school board to determine the appropriate number of armed security personnel for each district campus.
At the August 15 meeting, the board approved Elementary and Intermediate campuses to utilize Armed Security Guards. Effective today, August 28, all Elementary and Intermediate campuses will have Armed Security Guards present.
We will work with the security guard to ensure they are a positive member of our school community and students are comfortable with additional security on campus.
We routinely practice safety drills to prepare for emergency situations. At the beginning of the year, we spend time teaching students about each drill and what to expect with each experience. On September 21st at 8:30 we will conduct our first lock down drill of the year.
CSISD - VISITOR PROTOCOLS
