Mock Drills/Evacuations
We have mock drills on campus to prepare in the event that we have a real crisis: fire drill, severe weather, active assailant, suspicious package, and hazardous material.
Parents will be notified if Galaxy students must conduct an emergency evacuation. Please note that our alternative site is Timbercrest Elementary School and our secondary evacuation site is Deltona High School.
Emergency Response
Parents Have a Key Role in Emergency Response
During and following an emergency situation, school and district officials must act quickly and follow established emergency protocols to safeguard students and staff, secure schools, and communicate accurate information in a timely manner. Parents can assist greatly by helping with preparation before the emergency.
School Emergency Guide for Parents
- Campus Evacuation: In the unlikely event of a campus evacuation, Timbercrest Elementary has been designated as our alternate site. We will assemble in Timbercrest's multi-purpose room and cafeteria. Parents/guardians would report to the cafeteria to pick-up students.
- Emergency Notification: In the unlikely event of an emergency, we would utilize our automated phone system to inform parents/guardians of incident.
- Drills: As part of our security plan, we are required to hold several mock drills addressing a variety of possible emergency situations, including fire drills. Should you arrive on campus during one of these drills, please follow the directives of our staff members.
- Visitor Policy: We welcome visitors on our campus. However, all visitors must check in at the main office prior to entering any part of our campus. All visitors must wear a visitor's badge while on campus and sign out prior to leaving.

Florida KidCare Insurance
Florida KidCare is our state's free or low cost health insurance program that provides comprehensive health coverage for children under 19 years old. Getting health coverage for your children before they become sick is very important. Children need regular check-ups so they can grow strong and healthy. Healthy children do their best at school and play.
Florida KidCare services include:
- Doctor Visits and Mental Health
- Check-ups & Shots
- Hospital, Surgery & Emergency Services
- Vision. Hearing
- Prescriptions
Eligibility for Florida KidCare is based on income and family size. Your child may be eligible for health insurance, even if both parents are working.
Florida KidCare includes four different programs. When you apply for the insurance, Florida KidCare will check which program you may qualify for based on the child's age and family income.
If your child is uninsured we can help you. See the informational flyers below.
