What a great week here at STISD!

Throughout the district STISD PD Officers spoke on drug awareness and positive decision making strategies for our students. We pride ourselves on being more than just enforcers of the law, but also to be role models and mentors to the students who we are sworn to protect.

STISD PD — Protecting Today. Inspiring Tomorrow.

Welcome back, STISD family! As we gear up for a new school year, your STISD Police Officers will be out in full force to welcome our students back and keep everyone safe.

We need YOUR help to make drop-off and pick-up safe and smooth for all. Please remember:

In School Zones:
✅ SLOW DOWN - Obey the posted 20 mph school zone speed limit. Fines are higher in a school zone.
✅ PUT THE PHONE DOWN - No texting or handheld use. Eyes on the road, especially with students walking and biking.
✅ STOP for school buses with flashing red lights and extended stop arms - on both sides of the road unless divided by a median.
✅ Watch for children - They can be unpredictable and may dart between cars.
In School Parking Lots & Drop-Off / Pick-Up Lines:
✅ SLOW DOWN to 5-10 mph. Parking lots are busy with students, staff, and parents on foot.
✅ BE PATIENT. Expect longer lines the first few weeks. Plan to leave a few minutes early.

Our goal is a safe, positive start for every student. Our STISD Police Officers will be on campus, in zones, and in parking lots to greet students, direct traffic, and answer any questions.

Let's work together for a safe and amazing school year!
Have a great year!
