Staff Use of Communication Devices
From Melissa Fears
As part of your monthly review of the school district policies with staff, it is a good time to review the school district???s policy regarding the use of cell phones, smart phones, iPads, tablets and other portable devices during work hours.
The district prohibits employees from using any communication device that interrupts or disrupts the performance of duties by the employee or otherwise interferes with district operations, as determined by the employee???s supervisor.
Please ask your staff to take the time to familiarize themselves with details about the use of portable devices in ???Staff Use of Communication Devices??? under Section G Personnel, Number (or subsection) GAT of the Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools??? Board Policies or click here. The school district???s polices are available on the BoardDocs website.
If you have questions about this policy, please speak to your supervisor or Human Resources.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Teacher Scholarship Opportunity to Teach Dual Credit College Courses
From Sara Reiter
Teachers interested in teaching dual credit college courses need a master’s degree plus 18 graduate credit hours in the content area. PREP-KC is offering a scholarship for teachers with a master’s degree to obtain the additional 18 graduate credit hours needed to teach dual credit courses. This is a great opportunity to expand the number of dual credit college courses that we offer so students can earn a Diploma+ endorsement. Please share with your teachers who meet the criteria.
