Jordan School District P-Card Holders

FROM:  
Kurt A. Prusse, Purchasing Director

This is to remind you that purchases made before the cycle end date of June 6, 2022, will be taken from your 2021-2022 school year budget. Any charges after June 6, 2022, will be taken from your 2022-2023 school year budget. Your reconciliation will still be due in the Accounting Office by June 17th, as the 19th falls on the weekend. If you can get your reconciliation in sooner than that, the Accounting Department would appreciate it.

As a reminder for traditional schools, your P-Card reconciliation is still due in the Accounting Department by June 17th, regardless of whether you are working or not. Please make sure that you get your reconciliation in on time.

We are also aware that some assistant principals, teachers and secretaries who currently have a P-Card will be transferring to different schools in the district or will be retiring or leaving the school district. For those of you who will be transferring schools, you can keep the same P-Card but we will need the name and address of the new school, your new office phone number, and the accounting code that will be used at your new school. For those who are retiring or leaving the school district, please call Kris Wishart in the Purchasing Department at (801) 567-8708 and let her know so that she can cancel your P-Card.

If you have any questions or concerns, please give Kris a call.

Content Monitoring Over Summer Months

During the summer months, from June 6th until August 17th, content monitoring and notifications will have some changes.

  • Notifications to schools will only include administration and not counseling or mental health professionals. This allows for 12-month employees to still receive notifications and not those who are off contract. The notifications will go to the entire team of admin at each school in case there are administrators that are out of the office.
  • Notifications that are not considered emergencies or urgent will not be sent after 2pm to ensure that intervention is reasonable and timely for school personnel.
  • Content monitoring will be checked twice per week, on Mondays and Thursdays in June, while school is not in session, and once per week, only on Mondays, in July. Notifications will be sent to administrators on those days before 2pm.
  • We will continue to receive imminent alerts and will continue to work with administrators when immediate intervention is required.

Should you have any questions please reach out to Angie Rasmussen at angie.rasmussen@jordandistrict.org

2022 WIDA Access Dashboards are in Tableau

The WIDA Access, 2017-Present Tableau dashboard has been updated with 2022 assessment data. The dashboard contains a district report as well as a school report (use the School Name filter to see data for your school). Both reports contain composite score data as well as data for reporting categories (listening, reading, speaking and writing) and language domains (comprehension, literacy and oral). School administrators may also drill deeper into the data using demographic filters.

A dashboard containing a list of individual scores for each student who participated in the 2022 WIDA Access is also available. School administrators may use the filters to narrow down the list to identify students by demographic or language proficiency level. Such lists may be used to target students for additional time and support for the next school year.

Please contact Ben Jameson in Evaluation, Research & Accountability for questions about WIDA Access results or how to use these dashboards.
