Assignment Effective July 1, 2020:
Jessica Vidal, senior improvement coach at Education Direction, appointed assistant principal at Heartland Elementary.
The Central Warehouse is now stocking simple surgical masks to be ordered by schools and departments to distribute as necessary. Please understand quantities are limited, so only order to cover immediate needs. Do not order to stockpile for future use, including next school year. We will be ordering more to satisfy demand, but your cooperation would be appreciated in the short term. If an employee has a personal mask already, they are encouraged to use their own personal mask.
Masks can be ordered by selecting stock #5800850, and can be ordered like any other inventory item available in the District warehouse. Quantities are packaged and available in bundles of 50 masks. Therefore, smaller District departments should coordinate with other small departments to avoid ordering too many. They will be made available, Friday May 1st.

Although the Documentation Video is imbedded in the FAQ document, we've provided a direct link to this short video that was done to help explain what is and isn't required for documentation of special education services during dismissal. It also provides options for documenting required information but allows for other methods if teachers have already created tools that meet these same requirements.
