3. Review Digital Citizenship Training for students/parents in October and safety week. Mrs. Rogers was very successful in training and sharing information with students and parents during the month.

4. Safety Issues and Concerns:
Kindergarten Classroom outside door locked not able to get in to go to the bathrom or in an emergency.....check with district to see if we can put a FOB lock on that door so door can be opened quickly, but not left open to avoid safety issues.
