Aesop Subfinder System
Everyone should have received an email from me earlier this week regarding our new Aesop Subfinder System. The email contains the website information, as well as your individual login information. You will also have a computer-generated PIN number which you can change when your first log in. I would recommend that you change it to something that is easy for you to remember.
We will be “going live” with this system beginning Monday, May 11; however, your principals and/or Jill Kempf will still be very involved behind the scenes to make sure that everything is working correctly.
I will be sending out links to two short training videos that you should watch prior to May 11, but the system is very easy to use, and I do not anticipate too many problems. People who have used it in other districts speak very highly of it and are very excited out it.
Please let me know if you have additional questions going forward, and be on the lookout for the training video links.

Trivia Question of the Week
