About Us
The Office of School Safety is entrusted by the Board of Education with the responsibility to maintain a safe and secure environment for students, faculty, and district personnel in the Long Beach Unified School District.
The School Safety Division provides service to the school community 24 hours/7 days a week under the direction of the Chief of School Safety. Division personnel are available to respond to many types of calls for service to maintain order and discipline, locate missing students, investigate violations of school board policies, detain students violating the law or school board policies on school property and school-sponsored events, and respond to emergencies.
During an emergency, the Office of School Safety will activate the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to an appropriate level to facilitate the district’s emergency response. In a moment’s notice, Division personnel would staff the EOC to monitor the situation and identify other departments and resources needed to perform essential functions. Key decision makers and representatives from District departments would report to the EOC and work together to restore a safe and secure educational environment for our students and schools.
