If you see your staff member on this list, please congratulate them<\/strong>. You may feel free to reach out to any of them if there is a question from one of your staff regarding curriculum or other areas of support<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Religion and Holidays<\/u>: <\/strong>-Action Items-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please share this<\/a> policy with your staff.  I recommend asking your staff to review and following up in particular with your Music teachers and those planning holiday events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here<\/a> is the “Do Not Schedule” document of cultural and holidays, updated with 25-26, 26-27, and now the 27-28 dates<\/em>.  Be sure your office staff and those who plan events and activities have this updated version.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here<\/a> (scroll down to October) are student-facing materials on Halloween and costumes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Safety Drills:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Just a reminder that you should not be scheduling drills back to back (for example, a fire drill then a lock down drill). Please run them each as separate drills. Reach out to Scott or Kayla if you have questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
