Safety Reminder
While we all do our best to supervise students throughout the day, the admin team thought we should send out a few reminders for all of us to consider as we move towards the holidays.
1. Make sure your classroom door is locked at all times when you are teaching.
2. Make sure you move into the center of the halls (or wherever your assigned spot is) during class changes. Your visibility is a great reassurance to students that you are ready to receive them and that you are there if needed.
3. Make sure students move to the blue line area after they have been to their lockers during class changes. Expecting students to line up on the blue line across from your classroom doors at every class change allows organization to happen in the hall and deters kids from standing in groups. It also helps the adults be able to see down the hallways if assistance is needed.
4. Students should not be in the hallways working on work unless they are supervised.
Thanks for the great job you do every day with supervision and for covering for each other when you notice an area that needs help. Please let one of the administrators know if you see a needed change or area that is uncovered during class changes.
