Resident tells Riviera ISD board lockdown messaging damaged trust between families and district
Summary
During public comment, Crystal Solomon urged the board to improve communication after a recent lockdown, saying limits on students contacting parents and confusing follow-up messages undermined trust and created anxiety for families.
At the Sept. 24 Riviera ISD regular meeting, resident Crystal Solomon urged trustees to address communication failures during a recent campus lockdown, saying restrictions on students contacting parents and inconsistent follow-up messaging “created confusion and damaged trust” between families and the district.
Board President Pete Guevara reviewed public-comment procedures before Ms. Solomon spoke. Trustees listened but did not take action during the meeting; the public-comment period concluded with the Board moving on to the superintendent's report. The concern about student access to parents during emergency events was raised as a policy and communications issue for staff to examine further.
