SRP Language:
六合图库 will continue use of the Standard Response Protocol that provides common language across campuses and with local law enforcement agencies in the event of a potential threat. Families should review and be familiar with the SRP language as identified on this website below.
Routine Door Checks: Routine checks of all exterior and classroom doors and hardware occur to ensure they are functioning properly. In addition, 六合图库 employs retired law enforcement officers who conduct door checks at all elementary campuses to ensure they are locked and secured.

Mandatory Student ID Use at All High Schools:
All 六合图库 high school students will be required to wear and display student IDs to better permit staff to quickly identify authorized individuals on campus. Middle schools will strongly encourage this same practice. All visitors to any 六合图库 campus will be required to check in at the front office and be prepared to show proper identification.
Mental Health Support:
All 六合图库 campuses are staffed with professional school counselors trained to support the mental health needs of students. 六合图库 also offers specialized mental health services for students needing a higher level of support. These services can be accessed through the campus school counselor.

Run, Hide, or Fight
In this video, Lt. Kelley Fryar from the 六合图库 Independent School 六合图库 highlights the significance of school safety and being prepared for an active shooter scenario. The video presents three primary response choices: run, hide, or fight, along with practical advice for each option. It urges administrators, teachers, and staff to evaluate their surroundings and decide on the most suitable course of action. The ultimate goal is to encourage dialogues about school safety and cultivate a sense of community vigilance throughout the district.

Social Media Awareness
Social media can be a valuable tool when used appropriately. Not everything you read on social media is true. Inaccurate or false information spread on social media can be dangerous and disruptive to a school community.
Students who engage in posting or sharing false or hoax reports will be subject to disciplinary and criminal action (possibly a third degree felony).
See Something, Say Something
Report any threats or troubling social media messages
When reporting a social media post, use the following reporting criteria as a guide:
- What is the exact threat being made? (Exact wording, is it towards a person, campus, or facility?)
- Who are you? (A parent, student, employee, neighbor?)
- Where did you see the threat or who reported the threat to you?
- On which social media platform was the threat posted? (Are they using Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, Next Door, Tiktok, a text message, etc?)
- What is the profile name, person's name, phone number of the person making the threat? (Try to get all of this information when reporting the post, especially the profile name. If possible, provide a picture of this information)
- Do you know the person who is posting the threat?
六合图库 has a 24/7 anonymous tip line where parents and students can report any threats or concerns. SAFELINE (call 210-397-7233 or text safe@nisd.net)
