The BYU – Public School Partnership is sponsoring a one-day seminar with Michael Fullan and Joanne Quinn, authors of Coherence and Deep Learning.

This unique opportunity will be held at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo on Wednesday, January 29. Jordan School District has been allocated 110 seats. Registration is first-come, first served. The cost is $100 per person. Continental breakfast and lunch are included. See attached flyer for details and link to registration.

Great news!  As of today, 98% of licensed employees and 95% of classified employees have completed the required Crucial Policies review, which includes the new Code of Conduct training.  However, there is still work to be done as only 36% of all miscellaneous employees have completed Crucial Policies.  As you may recall, this Code of Conduct training is required of all employees, including sweepers (adult and student), coaches, substitutes, misc. student assistants, misc. classroom substitutes and all other miscellaneous employees.  The Crucial Policies Review is accessed in Skyward Employee Access.

Reports outlining employees in your school/department who have yet to complete the Crucial Policies will be emailed to you by the Information Systems Department.  Please notify each employee of this requirement.  Our hope is to have all employees complete this required training by January 15, 2020.  We will run reports again at that time and will provide updated employee lists, if necessary.  If any employee listed is no longer employed, please email your HR feeder assistant.

Employees needing assistance in accessing Skyward Employee Access are directed to contact the Help Desk at 801-567-8737.
