McFarland board recognizes crossing guards during state—9s recognition week; reviews school safety drill report
Summary
Board members thanked crossing guards during Adult School Crossing Guard Recognition Week and received a written drill evaluation and administrative‑hold summary concerning a student in distress.
Board members took time during the meeting to recognize the district—9s 10 crossing guards as part of a statewide Adult School Crossing Guard Recognition Week declared by the Wisconsin state superintendent. Administrators and board members thanked the crossing guards for daily service in all weather and noted that staggered school start and end times have helped reduce congestion during drop‑off and pickup.
Mr. Turner provided the board with a written school safety drill evaluation and an administrative‑hold report related to a student who was in distress. The report, presented in closed‑session administrative follow‑up, praised staff for protecting the student—9s privacy while providing care and outlined lessons learned about situational awareness (for example, considering where an incident occurs relative to windows and lines of sight). Board members acknowledged the usefulness of the lessons learned and the district—9s follow‑up procedures.
