Safety and security is our top priority. We believe relationships are critical to successful schools, and ultimately, our families and students are the best partners in keeping our schools safe. Our principals and school administrators investigate every reported tip or threat. We work with law enforcement and take quick and appropriate action, including notifying families, if there is a valid danger on campus. We ask all of our families and students to please share any information regarding school or student safety by either directly contacting a school staff member or by using our anonymous alert system. As we continue to grow, we will continue to explore, to collaborate with other school districts, and to find new ways to improve safety and security.

Anonymous Alerts

Submit an Anonymous Alert

Anonymous Alerts which allows students or parents to anonymously submit any sensitive or urgent student issues quickly to school officials.

Students or parents can submit reports such as bullying, cyberbullying, depression, dating violence, drug or alcohol use, threats against the school, weapons on campus and more. All messages submitted remain completely anonymous.

Campus Visitor Guidelines

Parents and others are welcome to visit Leander ISD schools. For the safety of those within the school setting, all visitors are expected to demonstrate the highest standards of courtesy and conduct. Disruptive behavior will not be tolerated. All visitors must report to the receptionist to sign in and receive a visitor pass to wear while on campus.

Raptor Visitor Tracking System

For the safety and security of our students, LISD has implemented a visitor tracking system in all schools. The purpose of this system is to ensure that adult visitors on campus are identified and do not pose a threat to any students or staff.

Upon entering the campus, visitors will be asked to present one of the following forms of identification in order to move beyond the front desk:

  • Valid Driver’s License (any state)
  • Passport State-Issued Identification
  • Card Work Visa Green Card

Licenses or identification cards will be scanned and returned. Once cleared, visitors will be issued a visitor’s badge, which must be worn while on campus. Upon departure, the visitor’s badge must be returned to the receptionist.

Emergency Plans

Emergency Plan Basic

Emergencies and disasters can happen at any moment and they usually occur without warning.

Through emergency planning the district helps to ensure that LISD continues to provide a safe learning environment for every child and every school. When an emergency strikes, our immediate response and prompt recovery will depend on the existing levels of preparedness among faculty, staff and students.

School Resource Officers (SROs)

Through partnerships with local enforcement – Cedar Park Police Department, Leander Police Department and the Travis Country Sheriff’s Office – School Resource Officers are highly trained law enforcement officers who choose to be at our schools. SROs help create a welcoming environment on our campuses while ensuring the safety of our students and staff.

SROs are familiar, trusted faces for our students, building a sense of trust and community between law enforcement and students, parents and staff. And in times of crisis, they are an invaluable resource to our administrators.
