After an 18-year-old John Jay High School student was stabbed at a Mexican restaurant during off-campus lunch, some Northside ISD parents were upset about how the incident was communicated.
“The first action on the school administrators’ part is not going to be going to the phone or to the computer, draft messaging to get it out to parents. Their priority is going to be -- it must be securing students and staff and making sure that that building is as secure as it can be until law enforcement arrives on scene,” Perez said.
“Alamo Heights ISD utilizes the School Messenger system, which allows us to send voicemails and emails to parents as well as text messages for those that opt-in. At the beginning of the school year, we ask that parents update all contact information so we are able to communicate with them and ask them to opt-in for text notifications if they haven’t done so.
“We would typically communicate with parents about situations involving a Secure, Shelter, Lockdown, or Evacuate status,” said Alamo Heights ISD. “Judson ISD has signed an MOU partnering the district with the “I Love You Guys Foundation,” and we have recently adopted the use of their Standard Response Protocol or SRP. We respond to different scenarios in a consistent way across the district and use common language. I have attached a handout for your reference. Each action requires students and staff to respond to an emergency situation in a specific way.
When is a note or phone call, or email sent to parents? What is the protocol before notifying parents? “Off-campus incidents involving students may also be shared with families, and examples of these cases could be if a student was approached by a suspicious person or followed by a suspicious vehicle. Another example might be if an individual, who may or may not be a student, posted or shared messages to social media that specifically mention a campus by name, and that message could be interpreted as a potential threat.
Get caught with drugs = Get kicked out of school Get caught with weapons = Get kicked out of school Problem Solved Schools will never do this because of the money.
Hey let’s ban all knives too.
Hopefully the perpetrators are captured and sent to prison
Ban knives! They are used in more homicides than assault rifles
more importantly, MANY school districts administrators don’t even punish students because too many helicopter parents take their $h!tty kids side
