Information for the Staff
Students Sick in the Classroom
As you know by now, there is a heighten sense of the spread of infectious disease based on the corona virus. On announcements this week we talked about how there have not been any confirmed cases in Ohio. I want to send a message to you to be appropriately vigilant with students who present as being sick. If you feel like they need to be evaluated, send them to the nurse. Also, just a note that the district is instituting a 14 day enrollment delay for any student coming from a country on THIS website from the CDC.
Survey
One of my former students (from when I taught) reached out and is conducting a research study on dyslexia. He would like your anonymous feedback to help in his research. Please take a minute to complete this brief survey. You can CLICK HERE to access the survey. Here is additional information from John:

My name is John Lehmkuhl, I am a graduate student at Xavier University. I am conducting this survey for my graduate study.

A few reminders....
When the office calls into your room on the P.A., please know that there is a slight time gap. Please wait a few seconds after our call to acknowledge and respond. We need to know that you have heard our request. Also, please tell your students to be quiet so you can hear the call.
If a student needs to make a call to home, please have him/her make a call from your room. Please do not send them to the office to make a call.
Also, homeroom teachers - please, please, please check your mailboxes often during the day (and always at lunch) as we put many messages in your mailbox. They may be dismissal passes for your students that have been received before lunch. Thank you!!!!
