FOR STAFF MEMBERS/TEACHERS:<br />
CAREER DAY (For Teachers): <strong>If</strong> your students have <strong>not</strong> filled out a Career Day survey, please make sure that they see Mrs. Galvez in the<br />
Counseling Office ASAP. Thank you.<br />
Missing Dowels for Butcher Paper Dispenser: To teachers, staff and students that may have taken butcher paper, Business Office is<br />
missing THREE (3) dowels/sticks that were holding up two rolls of butcher paper. We need those back to refill our dispenser. <strong>If</strong> we do <strong>not</strong><br />
get them back, we will have to resort to dispensing the butcher paper by business office staff only—no longer will it be made available<br />
outside our office. PLEASE bring back our dowels! Thank you!<br />
Maintenance Requests: Please make sure you are filling out the In-House Maintenance Work Request Form available in the main office if<br />
your room is <strong>not</strong> being cleaned. We are trying to ensure that JJ Janitorial is meeting our needs and we need your assistance in monitoring<br />
their progress. As for maintenance issues such as A/C, carpentry, electrical, or plumbing problems, you need only to report it once and then<br />
just ask Mrs. Cabrera for updates on your report. You do <strong>not</strong> need to keep submitting a Work Request Form for the problem if you have<br />
already submitted it once. For janitorial issues, please submit MORE than once as the problem occurs, daily if necessary. Thank you for<br />
your assistance and support!<br />
MISSING: HELP...some time during the Christmas break the ice chest belonging to the Go Green! Club went missing. <strong>If</strong> you borrowed it<br />
please return the ice chest to me, Mr. Kamiaz. We need the chest for our fundraisers. The money we raise goes to helping the horticulture<br />
classes taught. The ice chest is bluish-grey with a white top and a handle to pull the rolling chest.<br />
Truancy Referrals: Our grade level assistant principals are trying to crack down on truancy problems, and we need your help! Please<br />
check the attendance of your students and fill out an attendance referral for any student that has 3 or more unexcused absences at any time.<br />
Hall Passes: Please ensure your students are given HALL PASSES for lunch activities taking place in the main building and if they need to<br />
leave the classroom during class time. Information needed on the pass is the student’s name, date, time, where they are coming from, where<br />
they are going, and your name and signature. Your assistance in ensuring this is done will help us identify students that are skipping while<br />
we do our ―sweeps‖ of the hallways. Reminder: One student per hall pass AT ALL TIMES!<br />
Yearbook Pictures: <strong>If</strong> you did <strong>not</strong> get a chance to take your photo on November 1, please send in a picture. Please <strong>not</strong>e your name, title<br />
(Teacher, Aide, etc). Email is sanchezyearbook@gmail.com.<br />
Food/Drink Sales: It has been brought to our attention that several clubs/advisors are selling drinks, snacks or food during lunch and<br />
instructional time. Because we are under close scrutiny by the auditors and because of the stipulations in the department’s contract with<br />
King’s, we are asking all clubs/advisors to refrain from selling items in the morning and during instructional time. Items may be sold only<br />
after school after approval has been granted by the Activities Coordinator and Finance Board.<br />
