School safety is of the utmost importance to all of us at Great Hearts Academies. Great Hearts has invested in safety throughout our buildings and campuses and partnered with security professionals over the past five years to continue to strengthen and train our school personnel in safety procedures throughout the campuses.
Everyday, there are two School Resource Officers on our campus on standby to ensure our students are kept safe. We lock every classroom door, so that only school faculty and staff can enter the classrooms.
Each campus practices emergency procedures and trains regularly on the variety of safety procedures covered in our Emergency Operations Manuals. From lock in and out procedures, to fire drills, to power outages. We have emergency action teams at each campus which are responsible for running all emergency drills and training all staff in our emergency procedures.
