What Parent Need to Know in an Emergency

In the event an emergency occurs during school hours, your student(s) will be cared for at their school or at a designated location. Your cooperation is necessary in any emergency; therefore, please be aware of the following guidelines:

  • Do not telephone the school directly. School telephone lines may be needed for emergency communication.
  • In emergency situations directly involving your student, parents/guardians will be contacted by school staff members.
  • Emergency communications: The District or School will communicate with parents via email, SMS text messaging, recorded voicemails, and/or phone calls.
  • Maintain your contact information so MUSD can reach you: It is critical that parents and guardians maintain current contact information at their student's school: mobile phone, email, work and home phone, etc.
  • The local news media (tv and radio) may communicate emergency information.

Evacuation and Reunification

Students will be kept at their home school when possible. If evacuation is required, we will transport students to another District School, or if necessary, to community partner locations that can accommodate our students and staff safely. If necessary, first responders will accompany us.

If students are evacuated to another location, parents will be notified by District staff members for reunification.

A student will only be released to parent(s) or authorized individuals identified on the student’s MUSD Health/Emergency Information Form.  Picture ID will be needed.
