CISD Families,
Cleveland ISD has entered into a partnership with the American Red Cross that allows us to welcome families in need of shelter into our facilities. An agreement has been reached for one of the Pine Burr Elementary 10-classroom portable buildings to be used as a shelter for families in need.
We would like to emphasize that all shelter operations are entirely controlled and there will be no interruption to the normal school day for Pine Burr students. Students will have NO interaction with Red Cross guests. As always, safety is our number one priority.
We will have extra security officers stationed at the Pine Burr campus throughout the duration of shelter operations. Guests will be kept in an isolated location and all activity both inside and outside the shelter will be monitored. Guests will follow standard Red Cross rules and regulations during their stay at the shelter.
We are thrilled to be able to help provide assistance to those in need!
