T-TESS & ATR End of Year Items
Dear Cougar Family,
As the end of the year approaches, all teachers need to complete the following items in TalentEd by the end of the day on Tuesday, April 23, 2019 (so we can be ready for summative conferences):
- 2018-2019 Student Growth Measure Data Upload
- T-TESS Goal Setting Template-End of Year Reflection
To help with this process, I have made some instructional slides. In addition, during your monthly department meeting, your Department Chair will be discussing this with you all.
Also, please be sure to log into TalentEd to sign walk throughs and evaluations. Completion of processes in TalentEd will be part of the end of year checkout process, so sign now and get ahead of the game!
May you all have a magnificent testing week!
As always, COUGAR PRIDE!

Need Supplies for Projects?
CSHS has a project cart available to assist in classroom projects and the library is very generous when it comes to helping students with needs of this nature. To check out the cart, contact Kim Rodgers.
Outdoor Classroom
The Layout is flexible! Check out this slideshow for inspiration as to how you might use the space with your classes.
To reserve the classroom, go to the CSHS Outdoor Classroom Calendar. Make an all-day reservation and include teacher name and periods of use. (ex. Parkerson 3,4,5).
Not convinced working outside has any impact on learning? Check out this article on the subject.
Comp Day--April 22nd!
If you have other questions, please ask Ms. Ayala.

Aesop has changed to Frontline!

Click Create Frontline ID
The system will sign you in with your new username and password and require these credentials for any future logins.
Requirements:
New Username Requirement: Your new username must contain 1 alphabet character and at least 4 total characters. (You can potentially use your email address or first initial and last name.)
New Password Requirement: The password must have 1 alphabet character, 1 number or special character, and 8 total characters. Include an email address to provide a means for password recovery and click the checkbox to accept the terms and conditions.
Absence Reasons in Frontline
If you are traveling with students, choose Student Activities. Also, remember that personal days have to be requested at least 3 days before the absence, so that cannot be the reason listed on same-day absence submissions.
