Texas law requires that any person suspecting a child has been abused or neglected must immediately make a report. If there is an emergency, call 911 and then call the DFPS Texas Abuse Hotline at 1-800-252-5400.

More information coming soon.

Arrow Academy is proud to partner with the I Love You Guys Foundation to implement the Standard Response Protocols (SRP).  We encourage all parents to visit the I Love You Guys Foundation website to learn more about the SRP.

In the event of an emergency, Arrow Academy utilizes the Standard Response Protocol (SRP).    The SRP teaches students and teachers how to properly respond to an emergency situation. The SRP has been endorsed by the Texas School Safety Center (TxSSC), the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and the office of the Governor for the State of Texas.

The premise is simple - there are five specific actions that can be performed during an incident. When communicating these, the action is labeled with a "Term of Art" and is then followed by a "Directive." Execution of the action is performed by active participants, including students, staff, teachers and first responders.

• Hold is followed by "In Your Classroom or Area" and is used when the hallways need to kept clear of occupants and staff.
• Secure is followed by the Directive: "Get Inside. Lock Outside Doors" and is the protocol used to safeguard students and staff within the building.
• Lockdown is followed by "Locks, Lights, Out of Sight" and is the protocol used to secure individual rooms and keep students quiet and in place.
• Evacuate is always followed by a location, and is used to move students and staff from one location to a different location in or out of the building.
• Shelter is always followed by a type and a method and is the protocol for group and self-protection.

Arrow Academy is proud to partner with the I Love You Guys Foundation to implement the Standard Reunification Method (SRM).  We encourage all parents to visit the I Love You Guys Foundation website to learn more about the SRM.

In the event of an incident that necessitates the early dismissal of students from a campus, Arrow Academy will employ one of the two methods to reunify students with their parents: the Controlled Release method or the Standard Reunification Method (SRM).  These protocols are designed to ensure the safety and well-being of all students during emergencies.

In the event of an unforeseen incident, such as a power outage with no immediate time of repair and no active threat on campus, the school may conduct a Controlled Release reunification. This process, similar to normal dismissals, ensures a secure environment while students wait.

If a situation arises that makes it unsafe for students and staff to remain on-site, such as a structural fire or gas leak, Staff and students will be relocated (possibly by bus) to a safe location. In such emergencies, the Standard Reunification Method (SRM) will be employed.

WHAT TO DO

• Follow Notification - Await communication from the campus, then follow direction to reunification location.
• Bring ID - Identification and custody rights will be confirmed at check-in.
• Limit Calls - Keep cellular network usage at a minimum may be important in the reunification zone.
• Be Patient - Reunification is a process that protects the safety of the student. Calmness is key! 

We are excited to share two valuable resources developed in collaboration between the Texas School Safety Center and Safer Schools Together, aimed at supporting parents and guardians in navigating the digital world with their children.

The Cyber Safety and Digital Responsibility: A Parent’s Guide

This one-and-a-half-hour training provides in-depth insights into how young people are using technology and social media—both positively and negatively. The session equips parents and guardians with the tools and knowledge to initiate proactive conversations about safely navigating today’s digital landscape.

Raising Digitally Responsible Youth: A Texas Parent Guide

This guide highlights the impact of technology and social media on young people, emphasizing behaviors that could negatively affect their digital reputation. It offers actionable steps to help parents engage in meaningful conversations about safe and responsible technology use.

Both resources are designed to empower you to better understand the challenges and opportunities of technology in the lives of today’s youth. We encourage you to explore these tools and use them as a foundation for promoting digital safety and responsibility within your family.

As part of the implementation of House Bill 3, Section 19 (88th Texas Legislature), which adds Section 37.222 to the Texas Education Code, all school districts and open-enrollment charter schools are required to distribute information and resources on the safe storage of firearms. This initiative aims to enhance community awareness and safety in alignment with Section 46.13 of the Texas Penal Code.

To support compliance with this mandate, the Texas School Safety Center and the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) have collaborated to provide essential materials. The Texas DPS has developed a public relations campaign, Keep ’Em Safe Texas, offering free, downloadable resources to promote secure firearm storage.
