While we have systems in place to get certified input (ICCL teams, schedule building input, MTSS, etc,) ways in which we gather classified voices are not as developed.  How are you making sure you are giving classified staff an avenue to engage and share their voice in your building this year?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>After School Clubs:  <\/strong>Could you please let me know if you have after school clubs that are run by school staff?  I only know of 2 schools (TR, JUN), and need to know if there are more.  We are currently in the process of figuring out how you can accurately pay the staff to run the clubs, as &#8220;time sheeting&#8221; them is no longer an option. At the moment, these clubs are put on hold until this is resolved (which we anticipate being very soon). If you don&#8217;t have clubs you pay staff to do, you can ignore this.  If you want to start, please wait until this is resolved and move forward with the new guidance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>For Horizontal on Tuesday:  <\/strong>  Please take a moment before our horizontal meeting on Tuesday to reacquaint yourselves with your <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1LzbmbkEoHxIRJ4fiSl-emnI3DZeMTexQ?usp=drive_link\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1LzbmbkEoHxIRJ4fiSl-emnI3DZeMTexQ?usp=drive_link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">school design plans<\/a>.
