SUBJECT:
Additional Preparation Days for Kindergarten Teachers
The Jordan School District Board of Education has approved up to 3 additional preparation days per session taught for each kindergarten teacher. Teachers will receive a stipend of $500 per day worked up to the maximum allowed. These days may be used any time before the start of the 2025-2026 school year to meet with parents and students and make preparations for a child’s entry into kindergarten.
Principals should meet with kindergarten teachers to inform them that the preparation days are available and make a plan for how best to utilize the time.
Each principal will need to submit a group timesheet for the days worked. Please complete the Kindergarten Prep Days Stipend timesheet that has been shared with you, or can be found in your Quick Links, print a hard copy with teacher and administrator signatures, and send it in District mail to Shannel Hooper by Friday, August 29, 2025, for payment on the September paycheck.
