The safety of students is the District’s number one priority. To help ensure that every school is safe and secure, exterior doors are locked and school visitors must sign in with the building secretary and wear a special sticker identifying them as a visitor.
Also, Greenview Upper Elementary, Memorial Junior High School and Brush High School are outfitted with a comprehensive security camera system. The District is applying for a federal grant that will outfit all schools with security cameras to allow District security personnel to monitor live camera footage of every building in the District.
We also meet monthly and actively work with the Lyndhurst and South Euclid Police Departments to develop safety and security plans. Both police departments provide assistance when needed and collaborate with the schools on educational programming that promotes safety to students.
It is also SE-L’s belief that building relationships with students will help prevent unacceptable student behavior. Security staff at Greenview, Memorial and Brush interacts with students on a daily basis. At Brush High School, a school resource officer can often be seen talking with students and is another trusted adult for students to turn to with problems.
