The District is ordering the hanging Plexiglas sheets for your school submitted through the survey. The Facilities Department will pre-drill the holes in the glass to help expedite the installation process. Each piece of glass will come with the necessary hardware including a length of chain that can be cut to length, S links and ceiling grid clips. Building custodians will need to work with the administration and teachers to determine the desired location of each sheet and then install them. Instructions for installation are available through your custodial coordinator, should you have any questions. The Custodial Coordinators will also be available to answer any questions you might have.

We appreciate all of your hard work during these challenging times.

Director of Custodial and Energy Services
