At MISD, keeping schools safe is a shared effort. A door left open—even for just a moment—can create real safety concerns.

As part of our Stop the Prop campaign, you’ll notice new stickers on school doors across the district. These gentle reminders ask everyone to close doors behind them and avoid propping doors open.

It’s a small step that makes a big impact. 🚸
