  • QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD

Amanda : Raptor: raptor replacing data on time for school starting timeline. A raptor is replacing, won't be ready for when school starts, everyone won't be trained, but should be by sometime in September ( this is a paraphrase of the answer) Q: disconnect around bullying.  Allison:  I feel like I’m getting picked on, but I”m also engaging, is it really bullying. It’s about education on what bullying really is. 
MIKE: Q - SI assessment - threshold different, why the increase. 
A: net is wider: kids are reporting, teachers are reporting etc. 
MIKE: end of year survey: security teams:  it’s one thing to say I understand it's another to know:  
A: what do you know… what is the policy… show me….. etc. they are quizzed. Tho the slide did state it was a self report survey and didn't mention a quiz results.

public comment: M. Prince: NFWT March and Buck's call to action. ( want to support Bucks' call to action for a Bipartisan committee to. investigate the November 30, 2021, shooting to ensure it doesn't happen again. click here.

C. Erskine: Shared a parent's story about a child who finally walked into the building after three weeks of being unable to enter the high school. The mom, wanting to do the responsible thing, called attendance to inform them that her child was in the building and in the classroom with a therapy dog. However, the attendance secretary took it upon herself to enter the classroom and yell at the child until she started crying and had to leave the building. It was not up to this secretary to do this; so much for being trauma-informed if they are not going to implement trauma-informed training.
