Altus Junior High is adding a new visitor management and student dismissal system called SchoolSAFEiD. This technology will be used at all school front offices.
Visitors and anyone checking a student out of school will need to show a government-issued ID, preferably a driver’s license. If you are unable to provide an ID, our front office staff will be happy to help.
Altus High School has used SchoolSAFEiD since last spring with great success. This system helps us keep our schools safe and our students protected.
