Hello Tiger Community, Earlier we had an individual at McCoy Elementary School experience a medical emergency that required an ambulance to be on site. Students and staff are safe and Emergency Responders have departed the site. We appreciate your understanding and thank all of our team members and partners for their quick response to this medical episode. Thank you, Aztec Municipal School District

Dear Tiger Community, We would like to take a moment to clarify the purpose behind the "emergency incident" alert notifications, particularly in light of recent questions and concerns. We understand that seeing emergency vehicles on a school campus can understandably cause concern for families and the broader community. To ease worries and promote transparency, we aim to provide notifications about incidents on campus whenever we can. In instances where a student experiences a medical emergency—whether it’s a minor injury or a more serious situation—the Aztec School Health Team assesses the need for further medical attention. If necessary, Emergency Services are contacted to ensure the well-being of the student. Our priority is always to work closely with the impacted family and Emergency Services to address the situation quickly and effectively. Once the situation is under control and the student is safe, we send out an alert to keep the community informed. At the same time, please know that we prioritize the privacy and safety of the student involved, which is why specific details are kept confidential. We appreciate your understanding and support as we navigate these sensitive situations while keeping the best interests of our students and staff at heart. Sincerely, Aztec Municipal School District
