They are encouraged to keep this card with them <br />while working. One side has a diagram indicating where and how a Crossing Guard positions <br />themselves in an intersection. The other side lists fifteen safe crossing techniques. The cards come in <br />both Spanish and English and are quick notes of some of the points covered in their Employee <br />Handbook. <br /> <br />Site Performance Evaluation (Exhibit "C") -The next formal training all Crossing Guards must <br />undergo is the Site Performance Evaluation (see sample form, Exhibit B). The Area Supervisor or <br />Safety Supervisor conducts site Performance Evaluations at the intersection the Crossing Guard <br />normally works. Each Crossing Guard is given a "Site Performance Evaluation" two times per school <br />year. This evaluation is used as an instructional tool to validate correct procedures and correct <br />inappropriate procedures. Any Crossing Guard receiving a low score on a Site Performance Evaluation <br />is re-evaluated by another Area Supervisor, Safety Supervisor or the Operations Manager within thirty <br />days. Unless appropriate improvement is noted such Crossing Guards are subject to disciplinary action <br />or dismissal. <br /> <br />Certification (Exhibit "D") - Within the first year of employment each Crossing Guard must <br />complete Safety Certification. This Certification focuses on current issues and safety procedures to <br />help Crossing Guards protect themselves and the children from injury and accidents. The initial <br />Certification Course incorporates classroom instruction, video presentations, onsite instruction and a <br />written test. Any individual that does not pass the Certification will be re-tested in thirty (30) days. <br />Failure to pass the re-test may lead to termination. <br /> <br />Re-Certification (Exhibit "E") - All ACMS employees must be re-certified each year to continue <br />employment with ACMS. The General Manager, Operations Manager and the Safety Supervisors meet <br />annually to develop the Re-Certification standards for the year. <br /> <br />Re-Certification has covered a variety of topics over the years, including testing for agility, instructing <br />on methods of controlling the intersection, emergency procedures and appropriate Crossing Guard <br />conduct. All Crossing Guards must successfully complete Re-Certification to continue employment <br />with ACMS. If a Crossing Guard receives less than a minimum score, the guard will be retrained and <br />re-tested. If the subsequent score does not improve the Crossing Guard is subject to termination. <br /> <br />2 <br />
