The Director of Risk Management came to Granite and walked the grounds with Cena last November. Granite is on “the list” for a camera upgrade. Cena will follow up with the district (Ryan Jakeman) about safety upgrades.
- Cena will update School Rules and Policies for the 2023-2024 school year and send a copy to SCC for feedback over the summer.
- Digital Citizenship, School Safety, and SNAP plans are due by November 1, 2023.
- Feedback from Homework Survey on Parent Square
15 parents responded. 9 parents said it is appropriate amount of homework
Some Comments:
“To come home after 6 hours of school and do more work is difficult.”
“Homework is appropriate but came from school with ‘no homework policy’ and loved it.
“Homework is appropriate but prefer no digital.”
Discussed:
State guidelines are 10 minutes per grade.
Cena will ask teachers to not hold students back for recess or Brain Boosters if homework is not completed.
