Gatesville ISD board approves 2023–2026 safety and security audit submission, cites documentation improvements
Summary
The district informed trustees that the 2023–2026 Safety & Security Audit finds GISD compliant in major areas (law enforcement/security personnel, emergency planning, threat assessment, bullying prevention) while recommending improved documentation and consistency; the Board approved the submission.
Assistant Superintendent Dr. Yancey Sanderson told the board that Gatesville ISD completed the required 2023—9 Safety and Security Audit Survey and that the district's Safety and Security Committee reviewed and approved the submission before it was presented to trustees.
Sanderson said the audit confirmed compliance across reviewed areas, including law enforcement and security personnel, school safety committee requirements, emergency management planning, behavioral threat assessment, and bullying prevention. The audit also identified opportunities for improved documentation, consistency, and districtwide alignment of safety procedures.
The Board approved the audit submission on a motion by Charles Alderson, seconded by Cheyenne Kizer; the vote was 5—6 with two trustees absent. Sanderson recommended continued attention to documentation and alignment as next steps.
