Faculty and Staff Meeting Monday, Feb. 25th at 4:10 p.m.
Afternoon Duty Assignments
Duty assignments have been revised. Please go to the link below. Everyone now has a designated area; you will see "2 ppl, or *4 ppl listed at the locations. Work with the other in your group and decide who goes where. It is vitally important that we fan out across the areas designated. We know from experience that we can prevent or at least intervene early if we are present and not distracted. The same "active monitoring" that we employ during STAAR testing is needed outside.
*Those of you who have off campus responsibilities after school, please let Dr. Holmgreen, Ms. Rising, or Mr. Johnson know and we will assign you to morning bus duty.
Thank you all!
