Please plan to attend a JELL Principal PLC on Monday, November 23, from 9:30 - 11:00. This will be an opportunity to look back at what we’ve covered so far, preview what’s coming up in the December JELL sessions, and collaborate and brainstorm with colleagues. The session will be virtual. The link will be available in the JELL Canvas Course. 

In preparation for the PLC, please check that your JELL Action Plan is located in your school planning folder. This will place all school planning documents in one folder and will provide access to your AOS. Instructions for doing this can be found HERE.

The next Assistant Principal meetings will be held on December 3 (1:00-3:30pm), and December 8 (8:00-10:30am). All meetings will be held in-person at the JATC-S. As a reminder you only need to attend one of the sessions offered per month. Both sessions will provide the same information. If you haven't had a chance to sign up for December, please CLICK HERE and it will take you to the Google Doc that has the sign up sheets. There will be a virtual option. If you have any questions please call Nadine Page at 801.567.8186 (x88186). Thank you!

Please see the schedule below for Principal Meeting. A beverage service of water and soda will be offered beginning at 7:30 am in the entry by the auditorium. Please take note that no coffee, tea or hot chocolate will be offered due to COVID restrictions.

Mark your calendars! Our next JELL Sessions will be in December. The sessions will be through ZOOM but will be smaller sessions. Each school will have an assigned date (see below). We anticipate substitutes may still be an issue and social distancing will still be practiced; therefore, T&L will cover the costs of 3 substitutes per school. You may choose to include the same group from September’s session, rotate leadership team members or cover the substitute costs for additional leadership team members. Add the date to your calendar, reserve your substitutes, and watch for more information.

The new Title IX regulations require anyone involved with Title IX issues to undergo specific training. Most often, the person involved with initial decisions related to Title IX allegations is the school principal. The Utah Division of Risk Management in cooperation with the Utah State Board of Education and the Office of the Attorney General has planned training for the new Title IX Regulations, with a particular focus on those responsible for initial decisions and for those responsible for the review of those initial decisions, as well as Title IX Coordinators. This training will fulfill the training mandated by the Title IX Regulations.

This new Title IX Regulations training is being offered as a virtual only training from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. with a 1-hour break for lunch, and all principals are encouraged to attend. Please select one of the training dates below.

October 27th 9 AM - 4 PM

October 29th 9 AM- 4 PM

November 10th 9 AM - 4 PM

November 12th 9 AM - 4 PM
