Thanks for following our security procedures. REMIND all students to not open doors for any adults. They will need to get an adult and they will tell them to come to the office.
- Teachers, be sure you have turned in your instructional practices reflection sheet to your administrator/evaluator.
- Check the Safe Schools video requirements and put the dates in our spreadsheet: SafeSchools Videos. You should have received an email this week if you are behind on the Safe School videos.
- The new Marketplace App is available on Webdesk for ordering. If the vendor is not there, then you need to use the paper PO form. The form for filling out a Purchase Order (PO-- see below), and it is important to put the item number and specific need on the order form so that we can order it as quick as possible. Thanks!
