Crisis Communication System

Blount County Schools has implemented the Crisis Communication System, a service of NTec, LLC. This is a comprehensive plan and procedure to improve safety and secruity for our students, faculty, and employees. We are now able to notify you with urgent information regarding school closures or early releases due to severe weather or other emergencies that might arise affecting our school routines. In the event of an emergency, you can be notified by phone/cell with information about the school's plan of action.

If the phone numbers you provided at registration have changed, please complete the form (sent home on 10/10/08) and send it back to the school OR go by the school to update your contact information. You may include home, work, and cell phone numbers. We cannot include toll-free numbers, office extensions, or pagers. All telephone numbers are protected by our privacy policy and will only be used to notify you regarding emergencies or events at the school. Remeber, the success of our system will depend on parents providing "good phone numbers" to the school. We plan for our system to be operational on November 3, 2008. Blount County Schools have always been committed to the safety and secruity of our students, and the Crisis Communication system is a valuable and welcome addition to our school safety program.

James E. Carr,
Superintendent of Education
