To access the page:
>District Home page (kckps.org)
>Staff link
>Curriculum & Instruction link (in the blue set of links on the lower right)
>PL Location Schedule link (in the red set of links on the right)

The direct link is https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c6YGF0khR22ZjaY04691hsfd6d_4aLBjBvxAtQq3gvQ/edit#

Protection from Abuse Orders

From Dr. Kelli Mather
Please be aware that if a school or department is in receipt of a Protection from Abuse Order from the courts for either a staff person or a family member, please contact Amy Jo Troyer or Jody Mitchell and send orders to the HR office immediately.
These types of orders typically expire, it will be the responsibility of the HR department to track each of the orders and provide support and information to the school/department. HR will also initiate any needed legal support from our legal team.

Thank you for your attention to this very serious matter.
