Co-Teaching Training

from Kelsey Kohn
The Initial Co-teaching Training is the first part of a professional learning and coaching system. This event is intended for teachers, administrators, and instructional support personnel. In this training event, participants will: * Define what co-teaching is and what co-teaching is not; * Consider benefits as well as legal and research-based rationales for co-teaching; * Identify similarities, unique features, advantages and disadvantages across co-teaching approaches; and * Explore tools for collaboration and communication. Materials and a working lunch are provided.

Enrollment Reminders

from Lisa Garcia-Stewart
We have just a few reminders as we approach the new school year. This year permits will need to be renewed every year and aren???t necessarily automatically renewed. Also, we need to be mindful of the permits when enrolling students. Please do not enroll students that do not reside in your attendance without a permit. If a permit is denied and states that the student needs to enroll at their home school, do not enroll the student.

Please also adhere to the enrollment procedures and requirements. Proof of address can be valid mail from a reliable source(i.e. government, insurance, I9) not just utility bill or lease agreement. Also, valid Kansas identification cards or driver???s licenses can be used as proof of address. Affidavits do not need to be renewed. A family should not need an affidavit for the same address every year. An affidavit is not a permit it is the proof of residency that is needed because the family does not have any of the other required documents.

Lastly, enrollment will be open for schools during Centralized Enrollment. Centralized Enrollment is for all new to the district students. We will be enrolling any current students at the schools. The Welcome Center is permanently closed. Schools are responsible for enrolling their own students. District enrollment hours are 8:30am-11:30am. Please adhere to these times to establish consistency across the district.
