Raptor System - The Raptor system is a district-wide safety tool that is being implemented at all schools. in case you did not see the note from our district it is below for your convenience. West High School will require all individuals to check-in using the "Raptor" system when you enter the building every time. This is now our official check-in and check-out system. I ask that all community members be courteous to our front desk staff as they implement these procedures per my directive. If you have an issue or concern please contact me, Principal Ryan Patt, directly. Thank you.
Dear parents and guardians,
We would like to make you aware of a security upgrade at all of our schools. Beginning Monday, Nov. 27, all visitors who enter a school building during normal school hours will be required to check into the school office and present a valid Identification ( Drivers License, State Issued ID, Military ID, or Consular ID ). Upon arrival, your identification will be scanned using the Raptor Visitor Management System. This software was purchased using funds provided by the State of Wisconsin School Safety Grant. Raptor provides immediate, real-time background checks on individuals to identify sex offenders and deny them entry. Once a visitor has been scanned, the system will print a visitor ID badge that is worn by the visitor for the duration of their visit. We ask that the visitor present their ID each time they visit and a new visitor badge will be printed. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding with this new procedure and know that you share our desire to keep our students and our buildings safe. Thank you.
