Blaze Bulletin
Edition 35 - Week of May 23rd
Greetings...
Dear Teachers,
Thank you for your work this year. It was a most unusual year with all of the testing - and testing changes - then more testing. You were flexible and professional, and we appreciate you. You continued to teach at high levels and you maintained higher yet expectations. Sometimes, that's the hardest thing to do! I hope you all enjoy a much-deserved summer break full of rest and enjoyment.
Due to multiple moves happening in the next week, we are all in the "jeans" zone for the rest of the year!
Sincerely,
Dr. Leisa Justus
Principal, Blackman High School

New procedures for leave requests begin next school year
Beginning next school year, all daily leave requests for periods of five days or less will be completed electronically, replacing the paper format used currently. PESG is our new substitute teacher vendor and includes this service as part of their contract. All employees will receive training on the new vendor program. Watch for additional information and complete instructions coming soon on the Human Resources website.
Technology Minute
This week’s Technology Minute focuses on Microsoft Office: Installed vs Web-Based. You can use Microsoft Office that is installed on your computer as well as a web-based version of Microsoft Office. It can sometimes be confusing to know which version you are using. This week’s technology minute will help you to understand the difference.
Summer Assignments
If you teach a course with summer assignments, please send a digital copy of the assignments to Ms. Hunter so they can be posted on the website.
