Good afternoon, teachers.
We hope you're having a great day so far.
As we've communicated over the past couple of weeks, the District is taking steps to begin the closeout process for our school year. Grade improvement is underway, graduation plans have been announced, and
Supt. Ray's weekly update video this past Friday
included new details about settling student fees/refunds and informing families about the summer online program.
Another important step in closing out the year is allowing students to safely visit campus to either return items that belong to the school or retrieve their personal items from lockers and classrooms. We of course want everyone involved to feel safe when entering the building, so
this protocol
has been developed by the Academic Operations & School Support team to assist in this process, which will
begin May 11.
Additionally, our Risk Management team has developed
these general safety guidelines
for employees who visit school buildings under any circumstances.
Teachers and school staff will have an opportunity to go to their buildings on
Thursday and Friday, May 7-8
, to safely prepare for this process. Please review
this protocol
in advance, which outlines procedures to ensure order and the safety of all principals, teachers and staff who re-enter the building.
Principals will work with teachers and staff to ensure families are well-informed of the dates and details for each school using the Blackboard notification system and/or other regularly used school/class communication methods. Schools are encouraged to use a sign-up link to schedule by grade level, with the week of May 18 being reserved exclusively for seniors at all high schools.
Be assured, the safety of everyone involved is our top priority, so we appreciate your cooperation by reviewing all protocols in advance. If you have any additional questions about your school's process, please contact your principal directly.
Thanks, and have a wonderful week.
