Dear District 215 Students and Families,

One of the district’s fundamental responsibilities is to provide safe and inviting educational environments for all students, staff and for our communities. The reality is that school violence exists and as a district we always want to be proactive rather than reactive. There are several measures the district has taken over the past couple of years to make sure that happens. Among them are conducting an independent security audit of all District 215 facilities and implementing many of the suggestions, training students and staff for possible emergency situations and continuously strengthening our relationships with our local police/fire departments.
