SUBJECT: 
Licensed Employee Advisory Committee for the Board

The Board of Education is forming an advisory committee made up of licensed employees from every school in the District.  The purpose of this committee is to advise the Board regarding issues that affect licensed employees (salaries, grants, leave, etc.).  Representatives will meet four times during the year (November, January, April, and July) and will be compensated at their hourly rate for participation.

Elementary and special schools, Valley High School and Academies will send one representative; middle schools two; and high schools three.  Help us in selecting the assigned number of representatives from your school by using the following process.  Please adhere to these procedures exactly as outlined.

Nomination

Elementary and special schools, Valley High School and Academies will need a minimum of two nominees; middle schools a minimum of three; and high schools a minimum of four.  Additional nominees are at your discretion.

1. Invite licensed employees to nominate, by secret ballot, the name of the licensed employee they would like to represent your school. Administrators are not eligible to serve on this committee.
2. Ask those nominated if they would be willing to serve. Serving as a committee member is not mandatory. If a licensed employee is unwilling or unable to serve, ask the next highest vote receiver, until you have the desired number of nominees.

Voting

1. Prepare a secret ballot for each licensed employee (including administrators) with the names of the nominees. The Board would prefer this be done by secret ballot to ensure that no employee feels pressure to vote for a particular nominee.
2. All licensed employees at elementary and special schools, Valley High School and Academies should be encouraged to vote for one nominee; middle school licensed employees two; and high school licensed employees three.
3. Tally the results.
4. For elementary and special schools, Valley High School and Academies, the top vote receiver is the representative and the next highest will serve as an alternate.
5. For middle schools, the top two vote receivers are the representatives and the next highest will serve as an alternate.
6. For high schools, the top three vote receivers are the representatives and the next highest will serve as an alternate.

Please inform the representatives, the alternate, your faculty, and me of the results. Representatives will be contacted with meeting dates, times and location.  The first meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 13th from 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.

Thank you for your help with this matter.  We are confident that this advisory committee will have a positive impact on the lives of our educators.

Dear Administrators,

Sandi Abplanalp has recently retired and we are quickly trying to fill her position. Until we hire and name a new person, we are asking that you please submit all of your after hours door scheduling requests to Ron Mousley at ron.mousley@jordandistrict.org. In addition, we are trying to catch up on employee ID badges. We appreciate your patience and support during this transition.
