Are Uplift campuses safe?

Your child’s safety is our top priority. While we can't guarantee there will never be an emergency on one of our campuses, we can ensure that we have plans in place to address safety issues within our control at each of our campuses:

• Gated and fenced campuses, locking vestibules, and electronic access systems provide a multi-layer support to prevent unwanted intruders.
• Security cameras located throughout the campus provide a full view of the school.
• Locked exterior and classroom doors are regularly checked throughout the day.
• Armed police officers on campus.
• Background checks on all visitors and volunteers.
• Comprehensive emergency plans, active shooter response training, along with regularly conducted safety drills.

While we know that these are best practices and exceed the safety requirements of TEA and the Texas School Safety Center, we also need your partnership in being vigilant and responsive to your child’s mental needs.
