The primary goal of the behavioral threat assessment is to prevent harm and promote the safety of everyone and everything involved:
the person showing unsafe behavior
students and staff impacted by the unsafe behavior
the school building and related property

Threat assessment is not an adversarial process; many threats are a cry for help. Having a team approach with a clear process allows for the safety of everyone involved. The process is designed to address, evaluate, and manage threatening behavior and troubling situations that may impact school safety. OCSU’s guide is based on best practices created by the U.S. Secret Service & U.S. Department of Education, and the need to follow these best practices are mandated by the Senate and House.

To learn more about behavioral threat assessment in OCSU, please visit this website. To report a potential incident please do one of the following:
Contact your school principal or the superintendent of schools (1-802-525-1204)
Email the team at: crisis@ocsu.org

Today is National Custodian Appreciation Day, and we want to shout out Mr John and Mr Dan!

To our incredible custodians—thank you for everything you do to keep our hallways shining, our classrooms clean, and our school running smoothly every single day. You don't just clean spaces; you create a safe, healthy, and welcoming environment where our students can learn and thrive.

We see the late nights, the early mornings, and the sheer effort it takes. You are both so vital to IVS!
