Fire Drills

Fire drill procedures are posted in each classroom.  Students are to exit the building in a quiet, orderly manner.  Upon leaving the building, students are to remain with their class and proceed to the designated area.  Students should return to the building in the same manner and route in which they left.  Pulling a fire alarm under false pretenses is a serious offense and will result in suspension from school and legal action. 

Tornado Drills

Tornado drill procedures are posted in each classroom.  In the event of a drill or actual severe weather, students should proceed in an orderly manner to the designated area.  Personal protection is important.  Students are to keep their heads down, knees drawn up with the back of the head covered with hands.

Inclement Weather

Should inclement weather or emergency situations result in the closing of district schools, or in an adjustment to school start or dismissal times, the information will be conveyed to local radio and television stations. 

School Resource Officer

As a result of a joint project with the Lenoir Police Department, a School Resource Officer has been assigned to work with the faculty, staff and community members to ensure a safe school environment.  The officer is available during the school day to answer questions and to work with students in matters that may require police intervention.

Video Surveillance Cameras

All students, parents and staff are advised that as a public school facility, students, staff, parents and building visitors do not have a right to expect privacy in connection with their actions and activities while in or about the school facilities.  In an effort to increase school district security, provide greater safety for students, staff and building visitors, and to reduce vandalism and theft, many areas of the high school campus, both internal and external shall be subject to observation and monitoring by video cameras.  The tapes of such observations shall be available for use by the school district and its administrative staff, if necessary to enforce the law and the provisions of school district policy.  Any questions should be addressed directly to the building administration.

Visitors

Hibriten High School is a closed campus and has a No Visitor Policy.  Under special circumstances, visitor passes may be pre-approved through the Main Office and issued to adults and / or students with adult supervisions.  All visitors must check in at the Main Office and display a visitor tag while on campus.
