Principals:

This is a reminder that the deadline for submitting requests for courses to be included in the 2018-2019 Secondary Course Catalog is quickly approaching. We are accepting requests up to November 17th. If requests are not received by then, there is no guarantee that we will be able to process the course in time to be included in the printed edition.

The secondary course request form can also be located on the Jordan District website, under Resources/Forms and Documents/General, or at the following link:  jordandistrict.org/resources/forms/general/

The Curriculum Department is planning a summer Teaching With Primary Sources Academy June 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 2018. We are looking for teacher participants from all levels, elementary through high school. The Academy would go from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. each day and participants would agree to attend each day. The stipend for participation in the TPS Academy is $675.00 and would be paid either on the July or August paycheck. Teachers who use TPS with students  can submit student work at the end of the 2018-19 school year and receive an additional $145 stipend. There are 19 slots for this Academy, if interested, please send an email to pamela.sua@jordandistrict.org by November 15.

The Classified Evaluation System has been moved from JPLS to Skyward. The evaluations will be accessed from Skyward Employee Access. Classified employees will no longer be required to complete a self-evaluation. Evaluators will begin the evaluation process and will complete the process by meeting with the employee to review and electronically sign the evaluation. Once the evaluation process is complete, the employee and evaluator will receive a confirmation email. A set of step-by-step instructions is included and will also be available from the JES website. For technical questions, contact the Information Systems Help Desk at 801-567-8737; otherwise, contact the JES Office at 801-567-8369. A schedule of work sessions to review the evaluation process is also included.
