○ Katie Dahle made a motion to accept the Digital Citizenship plan. Kim Wedlick seconded the motion. All were in favor.

● Safe Walking Route Plan

● Safety Plan-

○ Off Site evacuation plan: Church on 3100 E. We would then bus students to Brighton for families to be reunified. Concern was expressed that students are bussed all the way to Brighton. Brighton parking lot would be very crowded to pick up all students from the feeder schools.

○ Feedback on indoor line-ups

A parent expressed concern that students wait outside before school. This parent would prefer that students were allowed to wait outside their classrooms until school starts. SCC members discussed ways to address parent concerns. SCC members feel that with outdoor supervision beginning at 8:45. SCC also discussed that recess aides are paid staff. These recess aides are now wearing bright pink vests so that they can be easily identified. Teachers will also wear bright pink vests. SCC would like the school to continue to communicate that supervision starts at 8:45. Breakfast starts at 8:40. SCC recommends keeping our protocols the same since parents have options such as waiting with students, dropping off after 8:45, coming in for breakfast, etc.

○ SCC discussed: 1) change posts by the cafeteria to gates 2) put gates on Kindergarten playground 3) add cameras to blind spots around back of school 4) put gates on catwalks that would be closed during school hours.

○ Cena has requested a security camera coverage audit. We will find out if we will have money to add camera coverage.

○ Katie motioned, Stacey 2nd, All approved.

● Safe Walking Route Plan

○ Same as last year, Old Wasatch Drive: No easement so there will be no sidewalk.

○ Discussed the intersection of 3100 E. and Little Cottonwood Rd. Although not technically on the safe walking route, many students and families walk and bike across the street. 2 families in the last year have been in car accidents. We would like a light, a school zone, etc.

○ Asked about bus stop on Old Wasatch.

○ Julia motioned, Matt 2nd, All approved.

● Review last year LAND Trust plan, End of Year testing-Will move to next meeting agenda.

● Review current year’s LAND Trust/TSSP-Will move to next meeting agenda.

PTA Report-No items.
