Preschool Emergency Procedures and Parent Notification
Parent Notification
Our district utilizes a broadcast messaging and notification system to communicate with families. There are three channels within the system: phone call, email, and text message. Parents can update their contact information through the district website (www.dublinschools.net) by clicking “Families,” then “Update Student Information.”
In the event of an emergency, it is important that families and the community recognize that, if necessary, our priority is to contact first responders and secure our schools. We make every attempt to communicate with families as quickly as possible. Generally, we do not send broadcast messages for student medical emergencies, fire/tornado drills, or other situations where there is no threat to student or staff safety. First responder presence at a building does not necessarily indicate an emergency. Our first responders visit our schools regularly for drills, training, classroom visits, and more.
For large-scale incidents or dynamic situations, our district will defer to the Dublin Police Department for public communication. Parents and families are encouraged to follow the police department’s social media channels, and our district will share the Department’s messaging as it becomes available.
