In-School Closure Procedures

 

Edmond's School District has developed an emergency preparedness plan that will be initiated in case of an emergency such as fire, power outage, volcanic eruption, earthquake, or snow closure.  Should such an emergency occur during school hours, your children may be required to remain at school until the appropriate safety officials determine the condition's safe for release.  In an emergency, no students will be released early from school except to the appropriate parents or previously authorized persons with valid picture identification.

Authorized persons are those identified on the Student Emergency Release Authorization form which should have been completed by a parent of each child.  This form is filed with Hilltop's administrative office and a copy is provided to the student's teacher. 

In the event of an emergency closure, Hilltop staff will stay with the students and your child will receive their Komfort Kit.   Please do not call the school.  This will only tie up the phone lines.  School staff and volunteers will contact parents to provide them with appropriate information.
