Thank you all for your strong advocacy efforts, courage and tolerance over the last few months. While we accept the challenge before us and get about the business of planning for our new reality, we know there are more questions than answers at this time
A reminder about the mandatory all-staff meeting that will be held in person in Cedar Falls on Tuesday, April 16 to coincide with Regional/Discipline meetings. We are planning to meet with all staff from 9-11 am and then dismiss regional and discipline staff to their meetings for the remainder of the day. This will be an opportunity for us all to come together, begin to craft a vision for the future, and reaffirm our commitment to our team.
Please note that staff working at a detention center, youth shelter or River Hills school do not attend this meeting.
A variety of sandwiches, chips and cookies will be provided for lunch. If you have a dietary restriction, please contact Lori Thomas, by Monday, April 15 to ensure your lunch is set aside for you at the front desk.
