Substitute Reminders
- Please make sure to secure a substitute teacher through the AESOP system as soon as you know you'll be absent. Generally, same day absences are not pick-up.
- If you are using a preferred substitute, please make sure to confirm availability with that substitute before placing their name for the job.
- Please make sure your sub folder and emergency folders are in easy view for a substitute if not in your mailbox.
- If you no longer need a substitute, please cancel the job (and notify the substitute) as soon as possible - it is really awkward and unfair for the substitute to find out in the Main Office they are not needed for the day.
- Note: AESOP is only to secure a substitute on the days you are absent. You must submit a statement of leave form any time you are absent for an hour or more from DHHS.
Hall Sweep Duty - Clarification - From Mr. Ingram
Hello! I wanted to clarify hall duty as some had questions regarding it. I am not asking you to immediately go out into your assigned area once the transition bell rings for the next period. However, we are asking that you make it to your assigned area prior to the tardy bell to help move students to their classes.
Note: Due to Master Schedule changes a few of you are on the list for the wrong planning period. I will be correcting those soon, which may change future duty weeks for identified teachers.
Please remember to identify your week and be visible in the hallways to assist us. It truly is a team effort. Remember your colleagues will be helping your kids get to class on time too 😎.
From the Counseing Office - Infinite Campus Resets
Infinite Campus is now aligned with the students computer log in and all staff have access to reset student passwords by utilizing the student password reset tool on their desktop. The desktop icon is two keys (example below). When resetting the students password it will automatically reset to dekalb00. Please let the student know that dekalb00 will be their current password for logging in to the computer as well as their Infinite Campus.
Ms. Swanson will still be the contact for any parents that need their parent portal password reset.
The icon to reset passwords is above.
