Fine Arts Calendar

From Jodie Lin
All schools are reminded we have historically not allowed school events to conflict with the May 1-2 evening elementary festival concerts. Please do not schedule your spring concerts or events on these dates. We are trying to accommodate our many families who have students at multiple grade levels.

Live Theater Opportunity

From Jodie Lin

One of the components of our Arts Partners program is a discretionary fund for secondary school theatre experiences. Teachers and principals may request tickets and transportation for matinee performances at the Coterie and the Kansas City Rep.
Other professional theatrical experiences will be considered on a case by case basis.

It is intended that the theatre experiences selected for students be natural extensions of the curriculum, whatever the subject area.

To request tickets and transportation, send an email to Jodie Lin (jodie.lin@kckps.org) with the proposed date, time, title of show, number of students and number adults. Additionally, send a description of the direct link to the curriculum.

Show offerings can be reviewed at the following sites:

15-16 Evaluation Audit

From Sherry L. Samples

We are in the process of trying to wrap up an evaluation audit for the 15-16 school year and are reporting a large number of incomplete evaluations. Your input is vital to ensuring that our reports are accurate. If I have not already personally contacted you, please review all of the employees assigned to you for 15-16 in Talent Ed Perform and make sure that each of them has a green check mark to the left of their name under the evaluation tab by August 1. On August 1 I will run an updated report and it is important that your site accurately reflect completed evaluations. If there is not a green checkmark to the left of the name, this means that the entire evaluation process was not completed. Please complete all of the required steps which are marked with a red asterisk and then check the box on the lower right corner labeled, ???Mark Process Complete.??? The missing step could be as simple as not attaching a copy or missing a signature. Some visuals are attached for your reference. If the only thing needed to complete the evaluation is the employee signature, please contact the employee and ask that they sign the evaluation. As a reminder, a signature does not mean agreement, simply that they have had a chance to review the evaluation. In the event that you are not able to complete the evaluation for the employee, please send me the name and the reason for our records, if you have not already done so.

Your evaluation list for 16-17 in most instances will not be available until August 15. At that time I will send you more details.
