Principals,
It has been brought to our attention that there have been instances where ESL instructional aides have been asked to work beyond their duty day, but not compensated for this. Please make sure that if you have an ESL instructional aide work beyond their duty day, you compensate them; which can be in the form of early release the next work day.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me. Thank you.
