Parents/Guardians,
The safety and security of our students, faculty/staff, and building are a top priority. I am grateful to our Safety Committee who come together regularly to discuss ways we can continually enhance school-wide safety. The intention of this correspondence is to provide you with an update in regards to implementing a secure vestibule with a visitor management system.
A secure vestibule is a secured space between two sets of doors, which serves as a check-in area. Once a visitor has checked-in and been identified as an authorized visitor, the doors from the vestibule area to the school are unlocked. This added layer of security will increase and strengthen school safety.
Provo City School District and Canyon Crest Elementary School plan to implement a secure vestibule procedure (also referred to as a visitor management system). This procedure will require visitors, including parents/guardians, to check-in at an electronic kiosk upon arrival. All visitors will need to follow these steps:
The visitor management system materials (e.g., kiosk) have been ordered. At this time, we are waiting for the delivery. Because this system and procedure are new, we ask that you be patient with us as we learn the process and work out any complications.
Please Note: Currently, we are waiting for the visitor management kiosk to arrive. In the meantime, our Safety Committee has determined to keep the set of doors at the main entrance leading into the school building locked at all times. This will start on Thursday, August 25. If a visitor comes to the school, the visitor must press the call button in the secure vestibule area and wait for someone from the main office to answer and unlock the doors.
We thank you in advance for your understanding and support as we implement practices that will elevate school safety for students and faculty/staff. Please let our administrative assistant, Tiffany McCloud, know if you have any questions (tiffanymc@provo.edu).
Best,
Canyon Crest
