Campus Security and Safety
Legacy’s permanent school buildings implement a variety of measures to ensure the safety of the community.
Raptor Visitor Management System
Visitors access a single point of entry, and are checked-in through Raptor’s Visitor Management System. All parents, guests, contractors and volunteers must check-in with the front office and show valid state I.D before accessing the school building.
Secure Perimeter Fencing and Camera Systems
Secure perimeter fencing systems, gates and access points are operated by approved personnel and controlled by a mix of mechanical and electromechanical locks. Additionally, security cameras near the front lobby doors are monitor entry to the campus and provides continuous surveillance throughout the school day.
Emergency Communications
Emergency communications systems effectively notify the intended audience and appropriate response agencies. On campus, portable radios allow each staff member to remain in contact throughout the school day. Parents will receive communications through Parent Square and other official channels during an emergency.
Emergency Drills and Training
Periodic emergency drills and training of staff, students and other personnel uphold the school’s readiness to deal with emergency situations. This includes fire drills, shelter-in-place, and lockdown drills, with regular drills to ensure the readiness of students and staff, in case of an emergency.
