So what is the procedure. I have to go to work and it would be nice to know what the actual steps are.
- If I have 15 kids in my class, does someone come to the classroom an remove however many kids they want?
- Do I walk them to the office?
- Do they walk to the office with a buddy since that is required depending on age to go walk anywhere such as the Clinic, Front Office?
- Do they show ME proper identification with thier full ID that I can take a photo of?
- Does the Front Office know what is the proper ID and documentation that ICE needs to show me or show the person sitting at the desk?
- Give us actual step-by-step procedures.
- Will these procedures be posted at the school so everyone knows what has been decided?
- What is the School Board's plan to get the word out to every Teacher, every Substitute Teacher, Aide, Office Staff, Custodial, Volunteer,...... You never know who will be working at the exact time that ICE arrives.
The School Board rarely answers questions at School Board meetings. I'm sure they won't have one for this. In the meantime, I guess we all just "wing it" as I'm heading into a Title 1 school now.
Thank you so much for articulating this so succinctly as a voice for those you represent. It's imperative that this blog hear from teachers, so please pass the word if you can. I believe that Liz Barker has expressed similar thoughts - detailed communication is absolutely key - and not just to the principals. Her thoughts as spoken at the Feb 5 workshop are here: https://dearbubbie.substack.com/p/sarasota-school-board-members-speak
I received a similar answer to an email I sent. The phrase "lawful request" bothered me. When is such a request not lawful? Or if so when is it worth defying?
I don't have the experience with this type of language, so I did ask people who have more bandwidth to help us decipher it all. I'm looking forward to posting a blog on the responses of a couple of the board members.
Congratulations to the Sarasota Schools Superintendent for assuring every one of the school’s policies to protect and maintain a safe space for their students. Proving once again that he has the students and school system’s best interest in mind.
Please let this assurance be reason to get behind him and his recent changes and let him do his job…the job of running the school system. If he finds these recent changes ineffective, he could easily bring back additional board meetings. Let him do his job!
