1)Budget questions
a)There are monies in the Instructional fund for printer cartridges. Please bring your old cartridge to Mrs. Coble. Priority given to English teachers due to the volume of printing.
2)Professional Development reimbursement (Mr. Dallas)
a)Anyone wishing to attend a workshop for staff development may do so and will be reimbursed up to $300. The remainder of the cost, if any, is the responsibility of the employee.
3)What is the responsibility of SIT?
a)An email was sent to all faculty and staff concerning the true purpose of the SIT - this was taken from DPI. Issues not affecting overall student achievement, although important to some individuals, are not a SIT concern and will not be addressed.
4)EVAAS
a)All EOC teachers should have already taken a look at their students’ EVAAS scores in order to plan accordingly. All teachers may have access however. If you need a username and/or password, please see Shannon Brayboy.
