We gathered in the library for a District Mandated training on Child Abuse.We started with a video from Supt. Deasy summarizing the Miramonte situation, steps being taken on that site, and steps district-wide.
He focused on student safety and our responsibilities to the community.``
We then discussed the LAUSD policies and child abuse statistics.
We are mandated reporters and should call DCPS (Department of Child and Protective Services) at (800) 540-4000.
Use the form. You can find this online at https://mandatedpertla.org to submit electronically and http://schoolsafety.lausd.net
We discussed legal obligations, reasonable suspicion, and how to clarify rather than investigate.
Mr. Watson then distributed various scenarios and we discussed in small groups and whole group.
