At last night’s Board of Education meeting, I took a moment to recognize the victims of the school shooting that took place on Monday at the Covenant School in Nashville. I included some information about our work on safety in our schools. Please take a minute to watch the video to find out more.
Our district recognizes that school safety is our top priority. This year the district’s goal is safety. We have and will continue to focus our efforts on continuous improvement. I have communicated about safety several times during the course of the year. Those communications are worth reviewing.
In the District’s Winter 2023 Newsletter, I outlined the progress we have made this year in making our schools safer than ever.
In the February 3 Pville Press, I discussed the District’s Reunification Task Force and what to expect in case of an emergency. I encourage you to review our updated Emergency Plans and Procedures.
In the March 4 Pville Press, I talked about gun safety and how firearm-related injuries are now the leading cause of death for children and young adults. I also urged lawful gun owners to be sure their guns are stored securely.
Please be assured that we will continue to be focused on safety. Nothing is more important.
Calendar Changes
In other news, last night the Board of Education approved an amended calendar for this school year. The last three school days of the 22-23 school year are half days for K-6 students. All other school days remain unchanged. Here is the updated calendar.
For the youth,
Dr. Tina DeSa
Superintendent of Schools
