[Lekooks] Safe space for students

[Gail Ostler]

FYI,  Might want to look at Policy #14 on signage to ensure conformance.

Subject: Re: [Lekooks] Safe space for students

Got the scoop

Sign was made by Avalon Graphics

$170 for 10x4 (normal cost $300)

UCC  Hartland is also making one for their church that is for all students (not just AHS) and we could too

Can change size The discounted rate is $4.25 per square foot. (10 x 4 = 40 square feet x $4.25 = $170).

He might add a buck a foot to use a heavier material for the weather

I wonder for future also if one of our permanent signs could care a rotating message instead of getting new signs?

Of course we should also pair this with discussion with FM on plans for what we can actually offer our teens and renewing our welcoming congregation status

I will check but I am assuming this was printed through my friends printing company locally

I hear what others have stated but given that we are literally across the street from AHS and other churches around town are doing this, maybe we join with the same sign? I also appreciate that we can’t respond to every local issue with a specific sign

I will find out if it came from Avalon

Our banner could say: we have a safe space for you
But all of the As on the sign could be that Arrowhead A in rainbow color.

I agree with Gina. Plus, this is an issue in other local school districts as well, including Oconomowoc and Kettle Moraine. A more general statement seems appropriate.

If we don't want to raise too many hackles, we need not add the direct reference to Arrowhead and just have a Safe space/ALL are welcome banner?  That may sound as though I am backing away from the issue, I am not.  The church that put up that banner has a very direct involvement in this specific issue.  As I see it, our position would be one of making the statement and being in support of them and of the students and staff at the school.  Our use of the words Safe Space will be enough, they will know.

Hey folks. I was just on the indivisible Lake Country Facebook page and someone posted a photo of a beautiful banner that Our Savior Lutheran Church in Hartland just put up outside their building. Has anyone seen it? I wonder if we could do something similar? It says "Hey Arrowhead, we have a safe space for you". ❤️������������
