School Safety & Preparedness

The Appleton Area School District's number one priority is the safety and security of our students and staff.

Secure schools, highly trained School Resource Officers, and the I Luv U Guys Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol (SRP) help maintain high levels of safety and preparedness across the district.

In the last several years we have closely reviewed and updated our safety programs, empowered our teachers and staff, and created a District Safety Workgroup and site-based safety teams at each school to ensure that we are doing everything that we can to keep our learners safe every day.

Our ongoing goal is to find a proper balance between creating schools that are safe and secure while also maintaining an open and caring environment where students, staff, parents and community members feel welcome at our schools.
