June 2nd End of Year Meeting
We are looking forward to the last meeting of the year and celebrating all the great things you have accomplished this year.
We have invited your admin and district level leads to come hear about the great things that you are doing at your schools. Check in with them and encourage them to attend!
To make the first part of the presentation go more efficiently, I am hoping that you can send me your slide deck/results report presentation so that I can put it all in one continuous slide deck. Please have this to me by the morning on June 1st.
We will be initially separated by level for our presentation sharing and then we will come together for the end!
ICCL will be leading the initial leveled rooms😊
Reminder about Informed Consent and Permission Forms
Please take a look at the latest Informed Consent and Group Counseling Permission forms. The ICCL team worked on creating an aligned process and our attorneys have vetted these forms, so it is the expectation that we are all using the same one. Here is a doc that outlines the Best Practices and links to the updated forms.
Jess sent them over the Linguist Link and will upload the documents in the folder once they are ready.
Overdose PSA from Public Health Specialists
Students in Bend High’s Design Justice class developed an Overdose Prevention PSA video that can be shared with students at your schools.
We plan to share the video through Health classes in the remaining weeks this year. An email will go out to your middle and high school health teachers Monday morning asking them to share the video with their Health classes before the end of the year and to complete a questionnaire after they show the video. These are the instructions that will go out to Health teachers.
As a district, we will consider sharing this PSA to students and similar information to families more broadly next year following fielding testing of the PSA in the Health classes in our remaining weeks this year.
For your information: The instructions include the PSA script, additional resources to direct students to, and content for a future family newsletter. Please use the PSA script to answer any questions that may come up related to overdose risk.
If you have questions or concerns, contact your school’s Public Health Specialist, Tami Pike, or Aimee Snyder:

The video was made in partnership with Deschutes County Prevention and Health Promotion. The content in the video aligns with best practices for preventing adolescent substance use.
