At Legacy Traditional Schools, the safety and security of our students, staff, and community members are of the utmost importance. Our comprehensive plan includes emergency procedures, hazard analysis, security audits, training and exercise, and property improvements and maintenance. These longstanding safety measures are continually evaluated and updated at each campus to align with current technology, best practices, and state-required objectives.

Our commitment to safety is evident in the wide range of emergency situations covered in our training. We leave no stone unturned when it comes to preparing staff and students to handle situations with confidence and composure.

Arizona School Safety Program (SSP)

The Arizona School Safety Program Grant enables campuses to enhance school safety with a full-time School Resource Officer or School Safety Officer (SRO/SSO) through June 2026.

Collaborating for a Safer Tomorrow

Legacy maintains a strong partnership with local law enforcement agencies. This collaboration is vital in conducting comprehensive annual assessments for the prevention of and responsiveness to a variety of emergency situations. Legacy schools engage with organizations like the “I Love U Guys” Foundation for emergency response protocol training and actively participate in ACTIC’s TVA (threat vulnerability assessment) program.

Campus Security and Safety

Legacy’s permanent school buildings implement a variety of measures to ensure the safety of the community.

Raptor Visitor Management System

Visitors access a single point of entry, and are checked-in through Raptor’s Visitor Management System. All parents, guests, contractors and volunteers must check-in with the front office and show valid state I.D before accessing the school building.

Secure Perimeter Fencing and Camera Systems

Secure perimeter fencing systems, gates and access points are operated by approved personnel and controlled by a mix of mechanical and electromechanical locks. Additionally, security cameras near the front lobby doors are monitor entry to the campus and provides continuous surveillance throughout the school day.

Emergency Communications

Emergency communications systems effectively notify the intended audience and appropriate response agencies. On campus, portable radios allow each staff member to remain in contact throughout the school day.

Emergency Drills and Training

Periodic emergency drills and training of staff, students and other personnel uphold the school’s readiness to deal with emergency situations.
