Facilitron
If you are planning on using EV facilities after school hours we must now reserve the space in facilitron. Barb can help you with this process. For example, if you are going to use the MPR for a play in the evening you must now reserve the space.
We are using the pay per use policy for the community. Each area has an attached fee and there are different rates for the type of organization requesting use of the facilities. School events take priority and there is no fee for us to use the facility. However, we must now reserve use.
Notes from Gen and AC meeting
- Healthy Kids Survey: 5th grade. It's coming our way. Students complete it online. Takes about 30 minutes. To be administered April 10-13th. Need a permission slip that will come from the DO to be given out at conferences. Only if they return a slip can they take the survey. I can have Specials teachers do this.
- IABs: These are to used to inform instruction. Teachers can decide how they do this. The data is in Illuminate. You can only see scores from individual students with all the tests they have taken. Not able to isolate the official IAB taken recently from the practice ones teachers did previously.
- CoGAT (GATE Testing): Letters to be given at conferences for parents to either opt-out or have the test given in Spanish. Letters will come to us from DO.
- ELA Adoption Committee: Info will come for people to participate on committee.
- Assessment Committee: Lyndsey is inviting people to participate on a day-long meeting in March to discuss assessments and calendar the assessments for next year. ACs are to attend this meeting.
