Safety Changes for 2025-2026

Good morning and Happy Friday!  This week’s safety snippets are resources and documents that pertain to the upcoming changes to the response protocols in our schools for the 2025-2026 school year.  These changes are commonly referred to NYSED’s adoption of the “I Love U Guys Standard Response Protocols.”  The link below is for the NYSED I Love U Guys landing page and the documents are some of the key changes.  If your district needs training specific to these changes, please reach out to Tim Richardson, who is an I Love U Guys train-the-trainer.  These changes also need to be updated in your District-wide School Safety and Building Level Emergency Response Plans.  Training on this is now part of the annual training that staff/students need to receive by September 15th, 2025.
