District Admin Meeting Updates

The following information came out of our Administrator Team meeting on August 12, 2011.

• August 31st - Retirement Reception in honor of Terrie Cada 3-5:00pm @ DO
• Lori Buckway is the new District Payroll Clerk.  All questions should be directed to her either through email or at extension #144
• Kelly Anderson (SRO) has been working on a new Crisis Management Plan that will be in compliance with the National Standards for Incident Command situations.  This will be finalized in the next few months through the board and I will update information with you then.
• Food Service has a new compactor for styrofoam (trays and packing bubbles).  These are then melted down and formed into flower pots.  These flower pots can be used by groups as a fundraiser or for class projects.  I could see them painted and used for Christmas or Mother's Day gifts, Reading Store, science projects, etc.
• New staff members (hired since last August's meeting) are invited to a meeting at the District Office on August 18th @ 8:30.
• The ALL STAFF MEETING on August 23rd begins at the High School at 10 a.m.  You are encouraged to arrive early for photo IDs.  PLEASE check the information on the card handed to you BEFORE having your picture taken in order to have it printed correctly on your badge.
• Health curriculum kits should be ready this fall.  Our building rep should be ready to share the information with you in early September.
• This year you will have access to the t:drive from home.  :)  Save your documents there!
• Student computers were upgraded in memory and should run faster this year.
• Teresa Brown will be working for the District at a Social Worker (back to her natural skills).  She will not be scheduled in our building on a regular basis, but we will be able to contact her to help us with family/home issues.  I have forms.  Please go through me to get to these services.  It keeps me in the loop and coordinates services.
• Insurance information was posted last spring.  You can check your plan on Skyward and make changes.  We are moving to Blue Cross Dental from Delta.  All changes need to be made BEFORE September 1st.
• Official transcripts must be RECEIVED in the District Office by September 15th to move on salary schedule.
