Student Support, School Safety, Social, Emotional, and Security for all students and staff is of the utmost concern and highest priority for OPUSD. Prevention and preparation are foremost to our mission; consistently working to prevent or limit hazards to students and staff, while being fully prepared in case of an emergency. Communications, staff training, parent information, and programs at schools are ongoing through the year. The Safety and Security Task Force and the Safe Kids Task Force are district-wide committees that meet regularly to review and address topics relating to student support and school safety. OPUSD regularly conducts emergency-related drills (Lockdowns, Fire, Earthquake) to make sure all parties know proper procedures to follow in order to protect our students to our greatest ability. OPUSD has the greatest counselor-to-student ratio in Ventura County and believes counselors are one of the key foundations to creating a welcoming school for all students.
