We are getting very close to the Special Education Summer Conference on August 3rd. This year's conference "Be the Change that Matters" will be held virtually via WebEx. A course has been set up in JPLS to register for the conference.
To register for the conference please go to JPLS and sign up for course #101604.
 
To select the classes you would like to attend, use the Google Forms link  https://forms.gle/D2tDfveLybR3Gf1DA  and the class links for your choices will be sent to you prior to the conference. Choose one class per session for a total of 3 classes. A class specific to administrators will be offered each session.
 
Those who qualify will receive a stipend for attending. A qualifying staff member would include, Special Education Resource and Self Contained Support Classroom Teachers, SLPs, School Psychologists and Counselors, BCBAs, Itinerant providers, Nurses, etc. Those who already have this as a contract day, such as administrators and those on a flex calendar who have chosen this day as a contract day, do not qualify for the stipend. If you are attending from outside the Special Education department at the request of your Administrator or classroom Special Education teacher, arrangements for compensation will need to be discussed with your school Administrator. Classroom assistants, aides and general education teachers are not eligible for the stipend or hourly pay through the Special Education department as it is not required to attend.
Attached are the schedule of classes for the conference and a document with the Bio's for each of the presenters. We hope to "see" you there!

All administrators/supervisors will need to request a badge access change or replacement for any employees who are moving to their location or department. Badge access is universal and can be programmed to any location. Email matthew.mears@jordandistrict.org to request the badge access change or replacement.

Employees should not return access badges to the Fire/Security Department, unless the location is named on your badge or your title has changed. Once a change request email is received from an administrator/supervisor, a new badge will be issued and sent to your location via district mail.
