Safety is Our Top Priority

Ensuring the safety of students and staff in schools requires a multi-layered and comprehensive approach. This includes training educators to recognize warning signs, implementing rigorous safety protocols, and fostering partnerships with law enforcement and community groups.

At Canon City Schools, our primary goal is to develop a comprehensive school safety framework. This framework aims not only to respond effectively to potential acts of violence but also to proactively implement measures that prevent, protect, and reduce the likelihood of such incidents occurring on our campuses.

Digital Safety

In today's interconnected world, digital safety is paramount. As we increasingly rely on technology for education, communication, and daily activities, protecting personal information and maintaining online security is essential. Digital safety involves safeguarding sensitive data from cyber threats, promoting responsible online behavior, and ensuring that users are aware of potential risks.

At Canon City Schools, we are dedicated to these principles, striving to prevent cyberbullying, predation, and other online hazards from effecting our students. By prioritizing digital safety, we aim to create a safer and more secure digital environment for our students, staff, and community.

To ensure the safety of our students and staff, we employ an advanced web filtering system to protect our network from inappropriate or explicit content. However, technology alone is not sufficient; we believe that maintaining online safety requires a collaborative effort between schools and parents. We urge families to educate their children about their online responsibilities and set clear expectations for technology use.
