Staff-student interaction affects learner engagement at many levels.  Student relationships with staff are considered to be central to student engagement and their learning.  Staff-student interaction is a two-way, dialogic relationship where district staff’s role is to influence, guide and provide feedback on what the student does.  Furthermore, effective engagement may come from situations in which the student initiates the interaction.

Due to the nature of staff-student interaction, actions by staff members that are inconsistent or in conflict with the values established by the District can harm students, staff members, and the District’s operation.

This lunch and learn will provide attendees with the knowledge and skills to enhance their ability to MAKE RIGHT CHOICES.  Attendees will learn how to define appropriate boundaries, identify acceptable and unacceptable behavior, recognize and respond appropriately to unacceptable behavior, recognize the early signs of misconduct, prevent and identify what constitutes student “grooming”.  Special emphasis will be placed on how to break through the culture of denial and how to implement on-going training for administrators and staff.

There is no charge to attend this event for ASCIP members or our invited guests.

Indoor Air Quality Best Practices – Indoor air quality (IAQ) can impact the health, comfort, well being and productivity of building occupants. Though it is a major concern, it is not a simple, easily defined concept like a leaky faucet. IAQ involves complex factors such as: sources and pathways of pollutants and odors; design, maintenance and operation of building ventilation systems; moisture and humidity; and occupant perceptions and susceptibilities.

We will discuss the factors that affect IAQ, comfort issues, and the role of district personnel and occupants in maintaining a healthy indoor environment.  You will learn the tools to address student and staff concerns regarding headaches, allergies, and other non-specific intermittent symptoms. You will learn how to determine when an IAQ assessment is needed, thereby eliminating the need for potentially extensive, expensive, and sometimes unnecessary testing.

Indoor Air Quality During Wildfire Events – The immediate risk of a wildfire is obvious; however, the secondary environmental health impacts of these events often catch districts by surprise and generate multiple questions such as: Is the air OK? What’s in the ash? Is my building safe to go into? What do I tell staff, students, community members and the press?

We will discuss these risks and associated solutions in the context of recent catastrophic wildfire events. Attendees will learn about the dynamics of these issues and how to protect their staff, student, resources and reputation in order to stop a bad situation from becoming worse.

There is no charge for ASCIP members and our invited guests to attend this event.

We’ve all been there:  The rush of adrenaline and panic when we learn a student was injured during a field trip or district-sponsored excursion.  A flood of questions and activities follow. The list of possible issues is as endless as the list of potential outcomes.

In an attempt to control these risks and panic-inducing situations, district spend thousands of hours and countless resources annually developing and updating policies, procedures, and expectations, with no visibility into whether or not they are being followed.  While well intending, these policies often add to an ever-increasing teacher workload, creating bureaucratic inefficiencies, and additional administrative costs.

During this Lunch and Learn, we will discuss lessons learned from these experiences and as a group review policies, processes, and enforcement tactics that may have alleviated these tricky situations.  Attendees will be active participants in problem solving solutions for their own and other district’s policy and compliance pain points, learn about industry standards, and leave with actionable items for implementation within their district.

There is no charge to attend this event for ASCIP members or our invited guests.
