Officials said Aug. 11 that Livonia Public Schools will host a new-staff orientation on Aug. 21 at Stevenson High School with presentations on district resources, mentoring from the Livonia Education Association, lunch and professional training on de-escalation protocols.

District staff told the Committee of the Whole on Aug. 11 that the new-staff orientation will be held the week before students return and will welcome recently hired teachers and other employees.

Mr. Francis said the event — scheduled for Thursday of the staff week — will include a welcome to the district, mentoring information from the Livonia Education Association, lunch and professional training on de-escalation protocols provided by SCC.
