School of the Osage strives to ensure student safety throughout the school day. All exterior doors are locked when students are in session. Visitors will be required to use the exterior intercom system at the main entrance of each building and provide a valid photo identification card when signing in through the Raptor electronic sign-in system. While in the building, visitors will need to wear their visitor badge and only be in areas noted on his/her badge.  Raptor may flag visitors who have a criminal record that prohibits him/her from contact with children, and those visitors may be denied entry by school personnel.  Volunteers and community mentors will be required to go through volunteer paperwork procedures including a background check before interacting with students. When signing out children during the school day, parents/guardians or approved emergency contacts must present a valid driver’s license before students will be released.
