Safety and Security Update
To help keep all of our students safe, please be sure to lock your room door when you are not there. No space should be left unlocked so that students can enter unattended. This includes the auditorium and other common locations. Help us keep these areas safe and secure.
Fire Drill: Great work on ensuring our students safely exited the building. We will hold more drills next semester. Please bring any questions or concerns regarding the safety procedures to Mr. Pace.
Hallways and Passes
We can accomplish so much when we all work together!
Thank you for the continued efforts in the hallways and with passes. Yesterday during homeroom every student I passed had an individual pass!
Classroom Breaks: During the block sometimes teachers offer students a break. If you are allowing a break time in the hallways it is essential that these students also have passes. If the students all come to one area (like the lounge or the Den) and you are supervising then the individual passes are not needed. For clarity and consistency, those in the hallway without supervision need a pass.
Meetings During Homeroom: If a meeting is being in help during homeroom, students will still need a pass to attend. Office workers can assist in getting passes to students ahead of time if needed. For example, the counseling office sent out passes to all students that signed up for College Application Day. Please let the front office know if you need assistance with passes.
