This past Friday, our Traverse City High School students took full advantage of an incredible lineup of hands-on learning, service, and fun! Students had the opportunity to dive into unique experiences across all 4 of our Maverick Enrichment Day goal areas:

- Post-Secondary Opportunities: Exploring future pathways with Building Tomorrow at NMC!
-Community Service: Giving back and connecting with nature alongside the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy!
-Team & Community Building: Strengthening connections and enjoying fall traditions out at Rennie Orchard!
-Arts & Cultural Experiences: Unleashing creativity through jewelry making with Linda from the Traverse Area District Library!

We are so proud of our Mavericks for trying new things, serving our community, and building strong relationships!

SRP Action Spotlight: HOLD 🚪

Directive: "In your room or area. Clear the halls."

A Hold action is used when hallways need to stay clear, such as during a medical event or maintenance cleanup. Classroom instruction continues as usual behind locked doors, while hallways remain clear until the Hold is lifted.

Learn more about safety protocols at TCAPS and iloveuguys.org.

This week, TCAPS is launching a 6-week safety awareness campaign! 🏫 Protecting our students and staff begins with clear communication. That’s why we use the Standard Response Protocol (SRP), the official response framework recognized by the State of Michigan Office of School Safety.

Watch this quick video to see how the SRP works: https://youtu.be/jH-EY3yGZDs

The SRP uses shared, clear language built around 5 core actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter. Follow along over the next 5 weeks as we highlight each action!

Learn more at iloveuguys.org.
