The faculty is committed to the safety and well-being of all students. In keeping with this commitment, a crisis management plan is in place in anticipation of a crisis or a disaster. The crisis management team, consisting of the Principal and specific faculty members, is responsible for implementation of the plan, if needed. Students are taught predetermined signals and procedures in order to respond effectively in the event of an emergency. Drills will be conducted on a regular basis. Memorial Elementary is our designated location should we need to evacuate the campus.
If it becomes necessary to close school at any time because of inclement weather or any other emergency, St. Theresa Catholic School will generally follow the decision of Houston Independent School District. School-closing information will be posted with local radio and television stations (Channels 11 & 13). St. Theresa Catholic School may use its own discretion to close school, based on the utmost concern for students’ safety.
The ParentsWeb System is used to notify parents via their cell phones, home phones, and/or email about any changes or school closures. It is important that this information be kept current with the school office.
