Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

As part of our district wide school safety protocols, we conducted a lockdown DRILL on Wednesday, January 11, 2023, and emailed to parents this post-drill letter on Friday, January 13, 2023. The drill was effective in helping us hone our skills in responding to a potential emergency during the school day.

The staff and students responded extremely well and I am very proud of them all. I encourage you to talk with your child about our drill and what they learned. As you know, the safety and security of our students, staff, and campus are of the utmost importance to us.

If you have any questions regarding any of our safety drills or other safety concerns, please contact the school office at 281-641-1600.

Sincerely,

Myra Herbst

Assistant Principal

BBE Safety Liaison

Humble ISD is hosting a Mental Health & Wellness Fair at Atascocita High School, February 23, 2023 @ 6pm. Our goal is to help decrease the stigma around mental health, provide tools and tips to parents and staff for improving their health. We know that relationships yield better results.

Humble ISD VOLUNTEERS make a significant contribution to the education of children. We LOVE our BBE volunteers!

For the safety of our students and staff, all Humble ISD volunteers need to complete a short online application prior to volunteering on a campus.

Thank you for everything you do for our school!
