The Falmouth Public Schools are committed to providing a safe place for our students. The district has policies, procedures and practices in place to ensure student safety. If you ever have questions regarding the safety of your child, please feel free to speak to your child’s teacher and/or the school’s principal.
The District is obligated to investigate all threats to students and/or staff. Threats can be general or specific directly identifying a person or a location. Threats can be verbal, written, including drawings, physical, or acts of intimidation where a reasonable person would fear physical harm. In addition to the school-based investigation, a wellness check at the student’s residence may be made by the Falmouth Police Department without prior notice to ensure the safety of all.
