If your report is an emergency or based on an imminent threat, call 9-1-1 to receive immediate attention. 

The safety of our students and staff will always be of the utmost importance to us. Campus safety is a focus of our Board and Administration and we have made many efforts and upgrades to help secure entrances and vestibules along with adding security cameras and processes throughout our schools. Huntsville ISD is proud to have a wonderful partnership with the Huntsville Police Department and we appreciate the large law enforcement presence in Walker County.  Working together we will all continue to strive to provide protection for the District’s students, employees, and facilities.  The Huntsville ISD School Police Officers provide regular active shooter training for our staff as well as other safety related drills to help us all be as prepared as we can be to respond to safety concerns.  Huntsville ISD is diligent in providing a safe learning environment for all.

Our greatest safety measure; however, is vigilance. We encourage all students, staff, parents and local citizens to report any suspicious activity, suspected dangers, or safety concerns to the appropriate authorities.  

All anonymous reports made to the school district may be submitted at anytime to Huntsville ISD using the Bullying/Incident Reporter via CrisisGo's Safe2Speakup Anonymous Online Alerts System (see reporting information below). Remember - if you see something, say something.

Please visit the Safety Response Protocol (SRP) page to learn the TERMS and ACTIONS used for safety situations in Huntsville ISD:

Safety is Huntsville ISD’s top priority and that’s why we have refined how we communicate in times of crisis or emergency through the use of the Standard Response Protocol (SRP).  Thousands of schools have adopted this program, created by the “I Love U Guys Foundation.”  The goal is to use a standard language with terminology that everyone can understand and follow.  Of course, the key is to train and practice.  Throughout the year, students and staff can expect safety drills to help ensure everyone is familiar with the Standard Response Protocol (SRP).

The safety terminology Huntsville ISD uses when referring to safety situations, threats, or other hazards are shown below and each has specific actions that we follow.   

In accordance with Education Code 37.105, the District has the right to refuse entry to or eject a person from property under the District’s control if the person refuses to leave peaceably upon request and:

1. The individual poses a substantial risk of harm to any person; or

2. The individual continues to behave in a manner inappropriate for the school setting after having received a verbal or written warning to cease the inappropriate behavior.

A person ejected from or refused entry to District property under this provision may appeal this action by filing an appeal under FNG(LOCAL) or GF(LOCAL) and shall be permitted to address the Board in person within 90 days of the commencement of the appeal if the grievance is not resolved at a previous level.

Always expect normal school operations unless the District sends official notification for any change. 

Huntsville ISD Adminstration contantly monitors the weather forcasts for our immediate area and communicates on a regular bases with the Walker Office Of Emergency Managements.  For all inclement weather events, we urge parents and students to stay vigilant.  Sending private messages to District social media pages inquiring about weather status and updates is not recommended.  Instead, please frequently monitor the District website, official social media posts, and parent email notifications (including SPAM) for any needed notifications or updates. 

When inclement weather DOES impact the immediate Huntsville/Walker County area that requires a change or interumption to our normal school day such as a 2-hour delay start or closure, the District will send immediate communiation to parents through the use of the district/campus mass parent notification system, website, social media, local radio, as well as Houston & Bryan/College Station television stations.  We will always make every effort to make the earliest decision possible for families should changes be necessary; however, oftentimes, those decisions cannot be made until we know the true impact for our immediate area. Understand that we do not make these decisions lightly nor do we make them based on the decisions of other surrounding school districts and communities.  We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.  We encourage parents to always make the decision they feel is best for their own family and circumstances.
