Quote to consider<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“None of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.” \u2013 Mother Teresa<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FROM THE SAFETY TEAM:\u00a0 The next fire drill will be Tuesday, November 16th during the beginning of 7th period<\/s> middle of 5th period (approx 2:05pm)<\/strong>.\u00a0 Before the fire drill, please review safety procedures with your 7th period class using this slideshow<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As was shared at 9\/28\u2019s staff meeting, the language around our safety protocols has recently been updated. Here is a link to the updated HDMS emergency procedures<\/a>. Please replace the old version with the updated version in your sub notebook<\/strong>. We will be distributing new posters with the new terms very soon. Here is a digital copy of the SRP posters (English<\/a>, Spanish<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having up-to-date class rosters is very important for guest teachers and in the case of an emergency. It is also best practice to have an up-to-date copy of your class lists with your red\/green emergency cards to help with taking attendance during an emergency. With the beginning of a new quarter, this is a good time to make sure you have updated your class lists<\/strong> in your sub folder and to attach a copy to your red and green safety cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UNDERSTANDING EQUITY pt. 1 EXIT TICKET:  Please provide feedback on the info shared in last Tuesday\u2019s staff meeting<\/strong> by completing this quick exit ticket survey<\/a>.  Your feedback will help Amber from the HDESD plan for part two, which will be shared at our next staff meeting on 11.30.21.  For your reference, here is the slide deck<\/a> Amber presented.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CIVIL RIGHTS TRAINING FOLLOW UP:  For your reference, here is the Civil Rights Training slideshow<\/a> Kinsey Martin and Steve Herron shared with us on 10\/26.  (*note: slides 25-29 contain images that may be disturbing).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through our Excellence and Equity listening sessions in 2019, we gathered incredibly valuable information about our students and families: who they are, and what their experience is like in our district.  However, we don\u2019t have this same level of information on one key district group: our employees.  We care deeply about who you are and what it\u2019s like for you to work in our organization.<\/strong>  Getting a better sense of this will help us ensure our staff have the same civil rights\u2019 protections as our students and families, and that we have supports in place for you.  You are invited to share your identity, experiences, and perspective with us via this brief survey<\/a> (please complete no later than 11\/19).   <\/p>\n\n\n\n
