It’s Attendance Awareness Month!
From Rosie Rodriguez
Access our newsletter. Create a link to access the newsletter and find ideas and resources to promote attendance at your school.
Information for Monthly PL and C&I Webpage Information
From Alan King
We are changing how we are sharing information for locations for monthly professional learning (both Content Wednesdays and Quarter District Inservice Days). In the past, we sent emails to every teacher in the district with this information. We had difficulty with accessing everyone???s email and getting the correct information to everyone who needed it.
We are moving the responsibility for accessing the information to the user who can access it when they are ready for it. The information will be stored on the Curriculum and Instruction webpage on the Staff Intranet. We will update the information each month after the previous month???s professional learning has finished.
Click on the attached document to view guidance for accessing the location of monthly PL document and guidance for navigating the document as well as highlights of the Curriculum and Instruction webpage.
We will email this information to teachers today. From this point forward, teachers can access the monthly locations by accessing the correct page on the Staff Intranet.

Please read and forward to all applicable staff the attached guidelines for dropping ‘no shows’ and students due to non-attendance for the 2017-2018 school year.
After you have reviewed the document, we ask that you please complete a short (4-5 question) survey to help us determine potential training needs for the system (links below).
If you have any questions regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you very much!!!!

Breaks for Paraprofessionals
From Michelle Colvin
Rest periods of short duration, usually of 15 minutes, promote the efficiency of paraprofessionals and every effort should be made to provide rest periods of 15 minutes or less twice each school day. The breaks are NOT mandatory and should not come at the expense of services to students with disabilities. The paraprofessionals break period shall be established at a time determined by the building principal, supervisor, or lead teacher.
