School Safety

At North Marion we believe students learn best in positive and safe environment where they feel connected, heard, and known. School emergency preparedness is a process that involves staff, parents, students, emergency responders, and the community. We encourage you to learn more about safety in our schools so we can work together to provide a safe school environment for all.

All North Marion School District students and staff are instructed on emergency procedures so that everyone can respond to an emergency without confusion or panic. All students and staff drill the standard response protocols several times each year. We conduct several drills during the school year, including:

  • Monthly fire drills,
  • Two earthquake drills,
  • Two lockdown drills, and
  • Two lockout drills.

The Standard Response Protocols we have adopted as a school district are from the I Love U Guys Foundation.  If you want more details on what lockout, lockdown, evacuation, and shelter terminology will mean for your child, view the safety protocols poster in the Supporting Documents section below.

Additional Resources for Parents and Families

The SafeOregon tip-line gives kids, parents, schools, and their communities a way to report student safety threats, potential safety issues, and access safety resources, such as violence prevention. Remember, if you see or hear something, say something.

Tips can be submitted in a variety of ways.
