School Threat Resources
Ensuring the safety and security of our educational environment is a top priority for us. We understand that our students’ safety and welfare are paramount within our community. To this end, our schools conduct routine training for a variety of emergency situations, equipping both students and staff with the readiness to act effectively when necessary.
School threat assessment teams play a critical role in maintaining a safe and secure learning environment. These teams are responsible for identifying, assessing, and managing potential threats posed by individuals within or connected to the school community.
To report a concern to the School Based Threat Assessment Team - use this link (also found on the district website).
Please note - the School Based Threat Assessment Team does not replace the need for an immediate response. If you have knowledge of an immediate threat or concern for student/staff well being, please contact the school main office. Should it be after hours, please contact the Bloomingdale Police Department.
