District Procedures 2019-2020

1. Front entrance door video intercom, buzz-in system in place at all elementary schools, middle schools, freshman center, and district alternative campus. Visitors are required to push a door buzzer and are asked to show identification and state their purpose before being allowed entry. All elementary, middle school campuses, freshman center and the district alternative campus have vestibules in their front entries to further increase security of the facilities. The high school does have a front entrance door video intercom, buzz in system for after school hour use but the main entrance has a vestibule where all visitors are checked in and screened by front office staff and campus security personnel screen students. Visitors at central office and all non-campus facilities are also required to check-in at the front desk and are issued a Visitor Badge.

2. All campuses are equipped with security vestibules to further limit access into schools.

3. Each elementary school has perimeter fencing on certain child play areas restricting access during school hours.

4. Hall Pass visitor management system and sign-in processes in place at all campuses. Visitors must present driver’s license for screening in national database of sex offenders. The system prints a Visitor Sticker which is used as a temporary badge for campus visit. System sends automated alerts to designated campus and district staff including SRO officers of any positive alerts. Visitors are required to physically sign in on a visitor log sheet and are required to turn in temporary badge at the conclusion of visit.

5. Intrusion Security Alarm Systems with electronic keypads for entry (after school hours) have been installed and are now in use on all campuses.

6. AISD currently has Allen Police Department officers assigned as School Resource Officers (SROs) to our schools through an agreement with the City of Allen. SROs are licensed peace officers with the Allen Police Department who are specially trained to work in schools and work full time during the school year. A new agreement with the City of Allen will gradually expand the number of SRO’s in future years.

7. SROs and other Allen Police Officers provide security for AISD athletic events, campus events, field days, prom and other district events.

8. Allen Police Officers provide traffic direction and control at designated campuses based on need. Their presence at the start and end of school is also a deterrent to unwanted visitors.

9. The high school, freshman center and STEAM Center have State of Texas, Level II non-commissioned trained district security personnel to help support the School Resource Officer Unit, monitor all campus activity and building access control.

10. Allen ISD provides trained crossing guards at approved intersections at all elementary schools and crossing assistance at the high school.

11. Criminal history background checks are conducted on all applicants prior to employment as well as all volunteers. All contractors who work on district property must also undergo a comprehensive criminal history check through FC Background.

12. All employees are required to wear identification badges while on district property. Secondary students are required to wear identification badges and must produce identification badges upon request at school or any school-sponsored activity.

13. District and Campus Administrators as well as counselors and nurses are required to complete National Incident Management System (NIMS) training as recommended by the Department of Education as well as the Texas School Safety Center.

14. Allen ISD has an extensive Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) that provides general guidance for emergency management activities and district plans for mitigation/prevention, preparedness, response and recovery.

15. The Allen ISD District Safety Committee is comprised of a broad representation of the district from campus administrators of all levels, and representatives from the various district leadership and support groups, as well as representatives of the operations leadership group. City of Allen emergency first responders are also represented. The committee meets regularly to discuss districtwide safety and security issues and makes recommendations to Cabinet for consideration of any improvements or new initiatives.

16. All employees are required to view an online training video on the district’s emergency standard response protocols.

17. Detection canines were utilized throughout the school year at all secondary campuses.

18. Area wide fully Digital Emergency Radio Communications System deployed and radios assigned to all principals, assistant principals and designated central office administrators. Administrator Radios are fully interoperable and capable of communicating with first responders. Each campus utilizes campus digital radios assigned to designated staff members for daily operations and campus emergency response.

19. Required emergency procedures training for all employees conducted and all mandated and district required drills were completed and monitored to insure compliance with Texas Education Code (37.108)

20. All campuses are equipped with digital IP cameras for improved video surveillance quality and capability.

21. All campuses equipped with emergency lockdown buttons designed to immediately place the building in lockdown when activated including automated audio alert via the intercom system and auto lock of doors equipped with access control.

22. All campus perimeter doors with access control equipped with electronic door contact sensors and are monitored 24/7 by the district Security Monitoring Station Team.

23. Security Monitoring Station Team monitors the district’s life safety systems including emergency radio communication system, intrusion alarms, access control and door contacts, emergency lockdown systems, and video surveillance systems 24/7.

24. District Threat Assessment Program provides a process whereby all reported threats go through a threat assessment process based on best practices. Team member representation includes representatives from the Allen Police Department and the team reviews and conducts a threat assessment on any potential threat to others or possible harm to self. This collaborative approach helps to insure that those in need of help are identified and provided interventions as well as timely referral of appropriate cases to law enforcement.

25. All AISD school buses are equipped with security cameras and all bus drivers undergo safety and security training including emergency evacuation procedures. All buses are equipped with digital radios capable of communicating with transportation central dispatch. Central

Dispatch also monitors the district’s emergency radio channel in the event of a district emergency requiring modification or altering of transportation operation plans.

26. The Tip 411 reporting system allows students to anonymously report potential concerns, threats or bullying. Tip 411 also works in conjunction with the Crime Stoppers program. Although users are anonymous, the program in some cases provides some monetary rewards to students who successfully use the system to report suspected criminal activity.

27. All campus and district administrators have the ability to monitor current weather conditions via the Pocket Perry App, a smart phone app, and receive location-based real time push notifications of severe weather and lightning detection within pre-determined areas.

Title IV, Part A--Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities

The purpose of the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities program is to:

o Support programs that prevent violence in and around schools; prevent the illegal use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs; involve

parents and communities;

o Coordinate with related federal, state, school, and community efforts and resources to foster a safe and drug-free learning

environment that supports student academic achievement.

Program Requirements

Principles of Effectiveness

An assessment based on objective data about drug and violence problems in the schools and community must be completed; (Example: Safe

School Survey available through Region 10 SDFSC Cooperative) Performance measures (goals and objectives) must be written to assure that

the schools and communities have a safe, orderly and drug-free learning environment; Programs, strategies and activities must be grounded

in scientifically-based research; (See Science-based prevention SAMHSA model programs, www.samhsa.gov; U.S. Department of Education

Exemplary and Promising Safe, Disciplined and Drug-Free Schools, www.ed.gov) An effective SDFSC program must be based on an analysis of

the prevalence of risk and protective factors, buffers, assets or other variables based on scientifically-based research, that exist in the

communities and the state; Programs must include consultation with, and input from parents; (Regional Advisory Committee provides ongoing

basis consultation with representatives and organizations in order to seek advice regarding how best to coordinate activities for schools in the

Region 10 SDFSC Cooperative)

The program must be evaluated periodically to refine, improve and strengthen the program. The results must be available to the public for

review.

Needs Assessment

In accordance with the requirements for evaluation of Safe & Drug Free Schools Title IV programs, a survey pertaining to drug and violence

problems for our district offered by the was administered to students whose parents had been provided notice in accordance with the Family

Rights and Privacy Act (FRPA) and had given written permission to participate. A total of 8909 students in Grades 5 - 12 participated. Results

of the survey are used as a part of the required Needs Assessment to develop and plan intervention and prevention programs following the

Principles of Effectiveness under Title IV, Safe & Drug Free Schools regulations.

Survey Results

Evaluation 2018-2019: In accordance with the requirements of Title IV, Safe and Drug Free Schools Programs, the program must be evaluated

periodically. In order to meet this requirement, a survey had been conducted in the spring of 2008. Students in grades 7-12 completed an

online survey adapted from the Region 10 and Texas A&M University’s Texas School Survey in 2010. This change was made based on fees now

being associated with the Texas A&M survey. In Spring 2011, the survey was expanded to include students in grades 5 and 6. Two additional

questions were added to the 2018 secondary student survey. Both questions pertained to student use of electronic cigarettes. Student

participation at the elementary and secondary levels is optional. Should a parent wish to “opt out” their child, a form is completed and

submitted to the campus counselor or teacher administering the survey.
