2020 Graduating Interns

SUBJECT:
Intern Graduations 2020
It is a long-standing practice in Jordan School District to allow full time, in state partnership university teacher interns to take one (1) day leave to attend either their own university commencement or convocation, without penalty. This year, this practice is expanded to allow all full time university interns including teacher interns, school psychologist and counselor interns, etc., the same privilege. Interns attending both in state and out of state university commencement ceremonies are allowed one (1) day; therefore, some interns may need to choose between commencement and convocation.
If a substitute is needed for coverage, the intern is responsible for requesting a substitute through Absence Management (formerly AESOP). The absence reason entered should be “other” and in the blue “notes to administrator box”, the intern should add the following information “District excused 0050 - personal graduation”. For additional assistance, please contact Juli Martin at 801-567-8219.
See dates for the in state 2020 University Commencement and Convocation Ceremonies on the attached memo.
