Active Emergencies Explained
Comunicación de Emergencias Activas en WCSD
All WCSD schools’ staff and students practice safety measures during the school year to ensure they know how to stay safe during emergencies. When there is an emergency or crisis at or near a school the district has an active emergency communication protocol to notify affected families promptly.
WCSD Responsible Threat Reporting Video
If you see any threats against schools or students on social media, please notify the police rather than sharing the threat further on social media. This is the most effective way to stop any actual threat of danger, and prevent the spread of rumors.
