The act of sending our children to our schools, one of the bedrocks of our American way of life, should not be something we question or that causes us to fear for their safety.

We want to assure our community that the number one priority of your Barrow County School System and your Barrow County Sheriff’s Office is student and staff safety.

We want to outline in broad strokes some of the things that we implement throughout the system to keep all our children, staff members and visitors safe. When planning for school safety we seek to create a welcoming, learning atmosphere that is safe and secure without presenting our schools as foreboding, prison-like buildings.
