You have four main safety responsibilities as a student:

•  Read and follow the district’s Student Conduct Rights and Responsibilities handbook: A Student Behavior Handbook for Elementary and Secondary Schools.

 

• Know your school’s rules and emergency procedures and follow them. Pay attention during drills and know what to do in an emergency.

• Be alert for Warning signs of trouble—in yourself and others. Know when to turn to an adult for help.

 

• Keep it cool! Do what you can to diffuse situations and keep violence in check.

In addition, you’ll find ideas for dealing with specific situations under Tools and Tips.
