April 19, 2006
Committee Members Present: Laura Bales, Lynn Duus, Mike Schlangen, Jerry Lynch, Traci Schlangen, Mike Steindorf, and Jim Reed.
Mike Schlangen called the meeting to order on Wed., April 19th at 3:07 PM in the high school library.
Fire Drill: Mike Schlangen shared information concerning the 28th fire drill. There were procedural concerns. Not every room has clipboards with red and green cards, and every staging area needs radios. Laura Bales will laminate 7 sets of the red and green cards. Mr. Lynch will check to see if there are any more flipcharts in the supplies that Lynn gave him. The music room and high school special education room are without items. Anywhere else? Intercom is not being heard in all areas. Conduct fire drills during high traffic times (class changes, elementary lunch, etc.).
Light Switches in Gym: Mike Schlangen reported that one of the light switches had sparked when a student went to turn the lights on. He will look at other types of switches and/or covers available for that area.
Open Flames: It has been reported that candles have been left burning in rooms. There should not be any open flames in rooms unless it is for a specific lesson. Not all rooms are equipped for having an open flame. Science teachers do not have to get prior approval from Mr. Lynch when they will be using open flame, but all others need to. It will only be approved if it is needed for a lesson.
Locking Bars in gym: The orange bars must be pulled out during usage of the gymnasium. A checklist needs to be made for when the gym is being used to remind adults who are in charge.
Gate: There is a concern during the picking up and dropping off of students. Mike Schlangen stated that the lead bus (S. Hayden) would block the gate so that other motor vehicle can't pass through. At all other times the gate will be closed and locked. There are some exceptions, such as the book mobile, maintenance vehicles, Pepsi truck, etc.
Elementary Stairs: Mike Schlangen has replace anti-slip material on some of the stairs. He will continue this repair.
Communication: Laura B. shared that the elementary still has concerns on not being able to reach the main office through the day. Mr. Lynch doesn't believe it is as big s a problem as it has been. The radios should help with that if needed, especially in the event of an emergency.
Lockdown Drills: More teaching is needed. Beginning with elementary first.
Fire Drills: Must have fire drills monthly.
Meeting adjourned 3:52 PM. Minutes by Laura Bales.
