Security Policies
• Closed Campus Policy - requires exterior doors to be closed and locked when the facility is occupied. Visitors must enter through the main entrance and sign-in at the main office.
• Lock Down Policy - identifies areas inside the building, such as classrooms, that can serve as “safe havens” or shelters should a dangerous situation (i.e. an incident involving an intruder) arise.
