Happy Monday TJ Stars!
Great things continue to happen at Thomas Jefferson! Mrs. Dean has started her fifth grade Art Club. The students participating are learning about watercolors and painting techniques. Yoga and Running Club are getting ready to start and we cannot wait to see our Stars embrace mindfulness and fitness. In just one month our Stars will begin to practice for Starstruck, the show where ALL Stars shine on stage.
If you have visited our campus you may have noticed a change in the check-in procedures. All visitors must check into the campus with a current ID; for more information about the Raptor Security system please see below:
The online Raptor® Visitor Management Program - screens and tracks everyone coming into Thomas Jefferson. The Raptor® Visitor Management school security system screens for sex offenders alerts staff of custody violations and provides districtwide reporting for all visitors. Please note that all campuses across RCSD are using this system
How will this affect you as a school visitor?
You will be required to provide a valid California ID (Drivers License) to be scanned and cleared by the online program.
A visitor badge with your information and a picture will be printed and this will need to be worn at all times while you are on campus.
This will be standard procedure for all visitors coming onto campus beyond the school office, including Category I and II volunteers.
We ask that you PLEASE be Patient with us as we work through the nuances and kinks of this new system, as it will take a few moments longer to check-in visitors than it has in the past.
THANK YOU!
