BEE BRIEF #27 – March 23, 2018

  • Supervision: It is absolutely essential to arrive on time for playground supervision and that teachers go to the area to which they have been assigned. On too many occasions, teachers are arriving 8 to 10 minutes late, which means that their assigned spot is unattended. This is a major security issue.
