Safe School Task Force reports audit progress, hiring for seventh position and plans for pedestrian walkway review
Summary
The Safe School Task Force said it had closed most audit items, identified two remaining items — a pedestrian walkway and accompanying parking/flow questions — and reported a hire for the seventh position expected to be on board in March; the task force also announced a return visit by safety speaker Don Chaumette.
The Safe School Task Force reported progress on safety work across the division: a recent safety audit yielded 28 items, most of which the task force said have been closed, leaving two outstanding items relating to a pedestrian walkway near the middle school and related parking/flow questions.
The task force reported it has identified a person to fill the seventh position in its pipeline; the individual was described as likely to join by March, though the lead added that staffing dates have occasionally shifted in the past. The task force lead emphasized that safety is an ongoing process and noted plans to bring safety speaker Don Chaumette back to discuss relationship-based prevention strategies.
The update included logistics: the task force will hold its next meeting on the 19th and will continue to monitor the outstanding audit items while pausing walkway work until pod/parking changes from construction settle.
