Teachers and other educators whose educator license will expire on June 30, 2023, are encouraged to begin the license renewal process by going to the USBE website. You may begin reviewing the videos and completing your renewal form; however, the following information has been given to us by USBE regarding licensure renewal:

We have discovered that the renewal feature of USIMS that was released this week is not working properly. We have turned off the feature and are working to remedy the situation as quickly as possible. We hope to have renewals up and running early next week.

Please refrain from directing your educators to renew until the feature is confirmed to be working properly and turned back on. We have updated the notification banner on USIMS.

We apologize for the inconvenience; we know that educators are anxious to complete this important task. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

The District HR Department will send you reminders in November, January, and March. A FINAL reminder will be sent to you in April as a 4th and FINAL NOTICE & NOTICE OF TERMINATION should you not receive your license renewal certification in CACTUS by June 30, 2023.

DON’T DELAY – START THE PROCESS NOW!

District Special Education Staff,

Due to technical difficulties that we have experienced with EdPlan in addition to a meeting with the EdPlan group, it has been decided that  it would be in our best interest to switch back to Goalview for the time being. This switch will take place on Tuesday, January 17th. Please note the following:

  1. Progress Reports: Continue moving forward with progress reports for this quarter as previously planned. Click here for the template

  1. If possible, you should reschedule any meeting planned for Friday, January 13th until after the switch takes place. If you are unable to reschedule please make sure to download a hard copy of any generated documents from the meeting so that it can be uploaded to Goalview.

  1. Anything that has been created in EdPlan will be migrated over to Goalview in the next few weeks. This will be done at the district level.

  1. Both EdPlan and Goalview will be unavailable over the weekend. Goalview will be  available starting on the 17th.

  1. You will still be able to access EasyTrac as you did before using the link in Goalview. Everything that has been entered up to this point will still be there. You will not need to re-enter any information.

  1. New teachers will receive a condensed training in Goalview in the near future. Date and times will be forthcoming.

  1. For Kauri Sue Hamilton School and South Valley School please see your administrators for your process.

Thank you for your patience as we work on upgrading this system. We recognize that everyone has worked very hard to make this transition. Unfortunately, there are still some modifications that EdPlan needs to correct before the platform can meet the needs of our district.
