6.D.4.b. (A.P. 4.1, 4.2) TEA Recommendation to close campus during lunch - discussion of options Description: Wording pasted from the District Vulnerability Assessment Summary: Suggested Improvements OVERTON ISD - Overton High School currently permits students to leave campus during their approximately 30-minute lunch period, without a screening process upon return, increasing the risk of safety or security incidents both on and off campus. This policy also provides significant accountability and safety concerns for students leaving the campus and affords returning students unchecked access upon returning to campus. The district/campus should consider closing the campus for lunchtime student departures to increase the safety and security of all students.
