Notes from Malinda
Rest, Relax, and Re-charge
Take time to re-charge yourself over the break. Do what you love with whom you love. When we return it is a fast sprint to the end and the kids deserve your very best.
Classrooms & Fridge
Please make sure your rooms are left clean and in order. Also, take any food you want saved out of the Fridge. It will be cleaned out over the break.
Spring Break Energy Conservation
Before you leave the building, please:
- CLOSE blinds before leaving for break to prevent heat loss through windows
- TURN OFF lights and UNPLUG non-computer electrical devices in your offices and classrooms (remember the storage areas)
- REMOVE all items hanging from the ceiling that may trigger light motion sensors
- TURN OFF all computer monitors, printers, smart boards and projectors
- EMPTY personal refrigerators and UNPLUG EVERY personal appliance
