 IMPORTANT SECURITY PATCH UPDATE FOR WINDOWS STAFF

Starting this week, staff running Windows desktops and laptops will be prompted to restart their computers to install critical patch updates automatically.



When prompted and before you leave for the day, please click 'OK' and reboot your computer to minimize downtime. These updates are needed on all clerical, administrators, and other staff running Windows computers.

 

Updates should be installed after hours, and your computer will be ready when you return in the morning.



Raptor Check-In - Clerical Update 

Parents/Guardians attending a field trip should be signed into Raptor and given a visitor badge to help with identification on the trip. Site clerical should keep a list of the parents on the field trip in order to account for them in Raptor in case an emergency occurs on site. 

The Raptor Procedural Guide has been updated to include this information. 

Contact: Rachael Peck

Safety Drills

As a reminder, there is no Google Form to fill out after every drill.  There is one just for lockdown drills in order to gather data on the key components such as locking doors, lights off, etc.  There is also a section to gather thoughts for improvements.  Please remember, if there are issues with facilities such as doors not locking, work with your custodian as a work order may be needed. If there are technical issues with Raptor in regards to the ability to log on, please put in a ticket using Zen Desk.  




As in the past, there is still the monthly fire drill report that needs to be filled out and sent to the fire department.  Update as of 10/21. Please do not email at this time. The fire department is updating their processes and will let us know next steps soon.

This is something helpful to keep in hand for families in need not only during the holidays, but all year long. LiveScan Update The Roseville PD is no longer doing live scans for fingerprinting. Please refer parents to other resources. Fire Marshall Inspection Follow-up was completed with the fire inspector to clarify what each school site needs to have posted. Please review the following and make sure your site is ready to go.

BUSINESS SERVICES Assemblies Involving Animals If you are hosting an assembly at your site that involves animals you may need to have parents sign the SIG Activities Waiver. All assemblies that involve animals on campus should be communicated to parents before the event. This can be done through an email, newsletter, blog, etc. If your students WILL be touching the animals, parents must fill out the SIG Activities Waiver. If your students will NOT be touching animals and will only be looking at the animals from a distance, you do not need to have parents fill out the waiver. Contact Amy Banks or Schelli Landreth with questions. EDUCATIONAL SERVICES LCFF Funds If you are placing any orders using LCFF money, here is a helpful resource to look at when determining if LCFF can be used. When in doubt, always reach out to your coach or Rachael.
