Mrs. Rhoades started our meeting by informing our members about our new principal, Mr. Wilson
Cuellar, whom will be starting on March 26th, 2014. Mrs. Rhoades gave them some background information about
Mr. Cuellar and told them that Mr. Cuellar will be meeting with Mrs. Rhoades on March 16th on his own time to
discuss with her school matters.
Mrs. Rhoades continued to present an overview of our Comprehensive School Safety Plan to our
members. She handed out a table of contents to all of our members. Also, she brought in the original
Comprehensive School Safety Plan binder to the meeting, for members to view if desired. She explained some of
the elements from the Safety Plan. She talked about our Site Security Plan, section A, she explained that each
school has a SRO, School Resources Officer. For our school we have assigned Officer Karla Corbett, whom is
stationed at King High School and she is around the corner and on our speed dial in case we need her.
Mrs. Rhoades talked about Section C, School Disaster Preparedness Plan. She talked about our Disaster Plan
and how every staff member has assigned duties and we also have a national Disaster Drill once per school
year. She also informed the members that our new principal will be doing a training called “Active Shooter”
with all of our staff. It’s a new strategy that was introduced to all of our principals and they will need to make
sure that all of our school staff is also trained. Mrs. Rhoades asked for our members to review the contents
and if they had any questions about or input for any of the sections to let her know. None of the members had
any questions.
One of our parents asked about the dates for our Summer Science Program. Mrs. Rhoades told her that
that program is still pending due to the budget cuts on the budget that provides funds for that program.
Mrs. Rhoades told them that Mr. Cuellar will notify them if they will be able to fund the program.
