Lock Down Procedure

Standard Safety Procedures during a Lock Down

During a lockdown, no person, except an official, will be allowed to leave or enter a Dickinson Public School District Building.

Lockdowns are initiated to protect students and staff by limiting the entry of individuals with unknown intentions. In some instances, an outside threat may not be identifiable, and allowing parents or the public into the building would place our students and staff at risk. During a lockdown, administrative staff are engaged in protecting the building from possible inside or outside threats.

Please do not attempt to contact the individual school or pick up your child during a lockdown. We understand this may cause an inconvenience, but our hope is that you understand we have your child's and hundreds more' safety at heart.

Please contact Central Administration Offices with any questions regarding this policy.
