Will County Regional Superintendent’s Commitment to Safety Takes Her Back Home

Will County Regional Superintendent Dr. Lisa Caparelli-Ruff has a long-standing commitment to ensuring safe schools, going back to her days as a dean at Bolingbrook HS.

During her time as a dean, she worked side by side with her favorite School Resource Officer, Carter Larry of the Bolingbrook Police Department.

They were a hands-on team and prioritized making BHS a secure environment for all students, staff, and visitors.

Dean Caparelli-Ruff and School Resource Officer Larry are now Will County Regional Superintendent Dr. Caparelli-Ruff and

VVSD Director of Safety and Security Dr. Larry, and their partnership and focus on school safety is stronger than ever.

They both endeavor to foster a culture focused on keeping all students, staff, and parents safe.

When Dr. Caparelli-Ruff announced the Will County Regional Office of Education’s Clear-Armor project at the beginning of 2025, she was proud to be able to include her home of Bolingbrook HS as a recipient of Clear-Armor’s patented shooter-resistant window laminate.

On May 19, Dr. Caparelli-Ruff met with Valley View and Clear-Armor staff at BHS to view the finished product.

Phase 1 of the Clear-Armor project throughout Will County is on schedule to be completed on time by the end of this school year.

Tips to manage workday stress

Work-related stress is a significant issue for millions of professionals. Recent research from the management system experts at Moodle found that 66 percent of American employees are experiencing a form of burnout in 2025. Stress also is an issue for professionals working north of the United States border, as data from Gallup indicates 49 percent of Canadian workers report feeling daily work-related stress.

Stress is sometimes considered a good thing, and medical professionals even note that acute stress can help to sharpen focus and compel some to fulfill their full professional potential. However, the Mayo Clinic reports chronic stress bas been linked to a host of serious health problems, including anxiety, depression, digestive issues, and heart disease.

The American Institute of Stress notes that work-related stress is a major stressor for professionals. Embracing strategies to manage work-related stress can help professionals reduce their risk for the serious health conditions that can be brought on by chronic stress.

• Monitor your stressors. The American Psychological Association advises professionals to maintain a journal for a week or two in which they document situations that are triggering stress. When

LEGAL NOTICES

documenting stressors, also jot down your responses, feelings and details about the environment, including the people around you, when stress kicked in. Keeping a journal can help identify the sources of stress and determine if there are any patterns that trigger it.

• Embrace healthy responses to stress. The APA notes that exercise, yoga or any other form of physical activity are helpful and healthy responses to stress. Too often individuals lean into unhealthy responses, such as drinking alcohol and/or eating unhealthy foods after a stressful workday. But the Cleveland Clinic notes that relying on alcohol as a coping mechanism for stress only exacerbates the feelings of depression and anxiety that stress can trigger.

• Establish boundaries between your professional and personal life. The APA notes that the digital era has led many professionals to feel pressured to be available around-the-clock. But worklife boundaries can be vital to combatting career-related stress. Turning off notifications from your work email account at the end of the workday can help to establish a work-life boundary. In addition, resist any temptation to check emails before going to bed, as doing so might trigger stress that makes it hard to fall asleep.
