Help Austin ISD ensure gun-free campuses (En español)

Austin ISD is dedicated to a safe learning environment at school and at home. Proper gun storage education and laws are essential to ensuring gun-free campuses. To further our efforts to protect students from firearms, and as a courtesy to our families, Austin ISD is informing families of the legal obligations to protect minors from negligent gun storage.  Keeping firearms stored safely at home or in vehicles is an essential aspect of gun safety. Practicing safe storage habits can go a long way in preventing tragedies and keeping firearms out of the wrong hands. Guns are now the #1 cause of death for American children.  76% of school shooters get their guns from their homes or from the homes of their relatives.  5.4 million children live in homes with unsecured guns.  More than a third of all unintentional shootings of children take place in the homes of their friends, neighbors, or relatives.
