Safety and Security

Welcome to Rome City Schools, where student safety and security is our top priority.

We understand that parents and guardians entrust us with their most precious treasures, and we take that responsibility very seriously. We are committed to creating a safe and nurturing learning environment where all students can thrive.

Our comprehensive safety and security plan includes:

  • Secure facilities: All of our schools are equipped with secure entrances, video surveillance, and alarm systems.

  • Trained staff: Our teachers and administrators are trained in emergency preparedness and de-escalation techniques.

  • Mental health support: We recognize that student safety also includes mental health well-being. We have counselors and social workers available to support students who are struggling.

  • Open communication: We believe in open communication with parents and guardians. We will keep you informed of any safety concerns and will work with you to ensure that your child is safe.

We are constantly working to improve our safety and security measures. We believe that every student deserves to feel safe and secure in school, and we are committed to doing everything we can to make that happen. In addition to our safety and security measures, we also focus on creating a positive and supportive school climate. We believe that when students feel connected to their school and community, they are more likely to make positive choices and stay safe.

We invite you to explore our website to learn more about our safety and security plan, as well as our commitment to student success. We hope you will choose Rome City Schools for your child's education. We are confident that we can provide a safe and nurturing learning environment where your child can reach their full potential. Thank you for visiting!
