CIS Goes Live
From Jody.Mitchell
As a reminder, the district went live on CIS Monday, February 13, 2017. Below are some helpful hints for success:
- Effective 2/13/2017, time sheet employees should no longer submit time sheets through the Employee Portal for work performed in their primary position
- If an employee works ???extra duty??? (work outside their primary position), they must clock out of CIS and complete an extra duty time sheet
- Please remind your employees to digitally sign their hours at the end of their work week
- All Principals/Administrators should approve their employee???s time weekly
- Overtime hours worked will be paid unless the employee selects the comp time bank when digitally signing at the end of the week
- As of June 30th any unused comp time will be paid to the employee

February 15 Due Date for Evaluations
From Sherry Samples
As a reminder, please review your Talent Ed Evaluation list for those employees who have an evaluation due on February 15 as it is quickly approaching. An evaluation is only considered complete and having met the state established due date if you have met with the employee, the employee has signed the evaluation, and you have marked the process complete with the button in the lower right corner of the page. This last step is often overlooked.
If any employees have access issues they may contact the TIS help desk via email or by calling 279-2330.
Information About Ordering Materials for 2017-18 School Year
From Suzie Legg
Please use the link below to access information regarding the ordering of student and teacher materials for the 2017-18 school year. This includes information for consumable student materials ordered each year as well as information for the addition of any grade level classrooms to your site.
I know we seem to ask for this information earlier each year, but I would ask that you provide the best information you have at this point. It is especially important to get requests in early so that we can get needed materials purchased and to your sites in a timely fashion.
Responses regarding consumable student materials are needed no later than Friday, February 17th. Classroom additions can be communicated at a later date if needed.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

The EC-5 Beginning Teachers meeting originally scheduled for February 9 has been re-scheduled for Monday, February 27 due to the Family Advocacy days scheduled this week. The meeting is scheduled for 4:30-6:30 here at the Central office.
The format for this meeting will be different in that EC-5 Beginning Teachers have been sent a google form to sign up for the session they wish to attend on February 27. Please remind your beginning teachers do sign up for their session as these sessions are required.
Thank you.
