Safety And Security

At Turtle River Montessori School, the safety and security of our students and faculty is our top priority. We have a high-level security system, coordinate with the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office, employ an on-campus guard, and thoroughly train our staff in security situations.

On-Site Security

When you arrive at the school during school hours, you will see a security officer patrolling the campus throughout the day. We use Tactical Security Consultants, a leading school security company, to manage security throughout the school.

ID Identity Scan

Our school uses the Raptor ID scan security system. This system is a national company that provides immediate confirmation of a person's identity. It compares IDs with the national sexual predator database as well as other background confirmation databases.

Our school also works hand-in-hand with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office to be better prepared for any emergency situations. Annually we provide detailed information about our school to the Sheriff's office and are in regular communication with their officers.
