  • Review School Safety Report action items
    We followed the action plan steps as outlined in dashboard: 
  1. Teach Thrive Time lessons every Tuesday and reinforce skills throughout the week
  2. Remind students about respecting personal boundaries before leaving for recess
  3. Have students create a segment on Falcon Report that focuses on respecting personal boundaries
  4. Teachers give Care Cards focused on respecting personal boundaries
  5. ParentSquare messaging about helping students respect personal boundaries – We didn’t get to this one 

Recess aides love the focus on respecting personal boundaries. 

  • Assure that the current year’s LAND Trust funds and TSSA funds were spent according to the plan

All funds are being spent according to the plan.  100% of Landtrust is slotted for aide salaries.  TSSP funded aide salaries and substitutes for BLT data days and a portion of the social workers salary as planned.  We must roll over less than 10% of each budget year to year.  To reach that goal we will journal entry books purchased to support reading K-5 if necessary.
