<p class="MsoNormal">A lot of districts have been revising and updating their Healthy and Safe Schools Plans, thank you for doing that. Several districts have requested additional assistance. At this time, we are still not able to provide individual feedback
 to each district that has requested it. However, we would like to provide a couple of plans created by districts as guides to those that still have questions. The two plans are attached.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Please review your plan to see if it is using language similar to these plans. Please note that if your district wants to emulate these plans be wary of simply copying the language as the exact language may not work for your district.<o:p></o:p></p>
