Please be thinking of options for staff lunch times when we have bad  weather. We will discuss during our PD on the 1st. Thank you for your help in figuring this out.  


Fire Drill: Here are some questions from the Fire Drill Survey.


Question #1: Do routes matter to get to the assigned locations? There was a lot of congestion getting to 5th/4th/3rd grade area & some classes ended up standing around for a while waiting for other classes to pass.


Answer #1: I noticed that at the last drill. We're working on some possible other positions for upper grade. We will keep you updated.


Question #2: How are staff accounted for during the fire drill?


Answer #2: Crystal is taking roll for the adults as the rest of the team is checking in with staff about children. 



Volunteer Protocols: We are working on phasing in volunteers for help with clerical items. As of right now, volunteers will need to have a negative COVID test within 72 hours of volunteering or show their vaccine card and follow health and safety guidelines while on campus. We will have a process of dates and expectations to you soon. You may begin asking your parents for volunteers, but please let them know of the current guidelines. As of now, NO VOLUNTEERS in classes except for art docents.
