We have an auction on PublicSurplus.com which will end on Tuesday, December 6th. It will be the last one before the Winter Break. Please take a look and see if there is anything you need for your building.

Also, just a reminder that your school needs to do their surplus paperwork and turn it in with all signatures if you want to be scheduled for pick up. Please do not delay in getting your paperwork in so that we can see how soon we can schedule our next surplus pick up.

As always, thank you for all your help and cooperation with this request.

Happy Holidays from Fixed Assets and the Surplus Warehouse

Principals:

With the arrival of winter weather conditions, please take time to review District procedures for snow closures and delayed starts.

When severe weather is forecast, District personnel will monitor conditions on roadways throughout the night. Superintendent Johnson will determine if school closures or delays are necessary by 5 a.m. All decisions regarding closures or delays will come from the District.

No announcement means normal school operation.

School closure or delayed start information will be posted on the District website and through social media no later than 6:30 a.m. The information will also be broadcast on local news outlets.

Please remember that parents can keep children home when weather is extreme. We ask that you respect this decision and work with families.

Full Emergency Communications & Snow Closure Guidelines can be found at http://jordandistrict.org/resources/emergency/

Elementary Administrators

Thank you for your help in the SLO process. By now, all teachers should have completed an SLO pretest and recorded the scores in MasteryConnect. The process for reporting SLO scores will be similar to last year, with the addition of several automated steps. Teachers will use a spreadsheet that has been programmed to guide them through each of the steps for recording pre and posttest scores. The spreadsheet will be sent to secondary teachers so those who completed SLOs during the first quarter can initially test the spreadsheet by submitting their data. Elementary teachers will receive the spreadsheet at a later date. The spreadsheet, along with instructions on getting started, is included. If you would like to become familiar with this process, please feel free to follow the instructions and add your own data to the spreadsheet. If you have questions about this process, please contact Holly Allen at holly.allen@jordandistrict.org or extension 88115.
