MISD Endorses Kentucky Safe School Week

We invite our Tiger district, families, friends, alumni and community to take the Kentucky Safe Schools Week Pledge at: www.kycss.org/sswpledge (visit link and take the pledge with other Kentuckians to show our Tiger loyalty!).

I will pledge to do my part to Shield our School by:

I'll mask up and cover my face, when I'm in a public place.

Frequently, I'll wash my hands, which keep them clean, that's my plan.

I'll keep space between others and me, to help us stay germ-free.

I'll be extra kind everyplace, virtual school and face-to-face.

I'll consider others as I learn, everyone deserves their turn.

The Murray Independent School District officially proclaims October 18–24, 2020, as the district’s Safe Schools Week in collaboration with Kentucky Safe Schools Week.

This year's theme is “HEALTHY HABITS, Shield Our Schools!” The MISD and the Kentucky Center for School Safety stands on the belief that everybody should enjoy school equally and be treated with respect. Community members, educators, students and parents are encouraged to get involved during Kentucky Safe Schools Week.

As Kentucky Safe Schools Week tries to support the various types of instruction across the commonwealth, they also bring resources to enhance the safety practices that are necessary to keep our schools safe. This year's theme is “HEALTHY HABITS, Shield Our Schools!” is so relevant during this time of transition, which mandate developing healthy habits are necessary for student safety. Our Kentucky Safe Schools Week Webpage (www.kysafeschools.org/ssw.php) offers resources and materials to promote safety in this time of pandemic. The Healthy Habits Safety Pledge includes safety steps for students whether they are learning virtually or face-to-face. Incorporating healthy practices daily, such as wearing masks, washing hands, social distancing and being kind (both in person and online). These practices can become healthy habits as schools continue to strive for academic excellence and provide a safer place to learn.

Helping students be mindful of their actions as we all strive for healthy wellness at school. Join KCSS and others across the commonwealth as we pledge to incorporate healthy habits daily.
