Safety & Security

Welcome to the North Plainfield Public Schools, Safety and Security Department. We are committed to serving our staff, students and community by fostering a safe and secure learning environment and minimizing disruptive incidents. Our Security Department includes a mix of district-employed security staff blended with North Plainfield Police Department’s Class III Officers and a District-Wide School Resource Officer. As a team, it is our goal to build trust and a rapport that improves the quality of life in the North Plainfield School Community.

We have a trained safety and security staff to help ensure that everyone feels welcomed and remains safe while at our schools.  Our staff is CPR/AED certified, along with receiving professional training in Restraint and De-Escalation and Mental Health First Aid.

Our Security Department has safety and security personnel in all of our schools to assist in prevention, deterrence, observation, detection and reporting of any unauthorized activity.  The security team’s roles and responsibilities include, but are not limited to: Internal/external patrolling of all school properties, enforcing policy, rules and regulations, responding to any emergent situations and assisting building administration during security incidents, emergencies and drills.
