The CTE Bot: San Antonio ISD
Volume I, Issue 3
About the CTE Bot
Deadline Approaching for Equipment Request Window
We are re-opening the equipment, curriculum, and software request window. You can now fill out the request form and turn it into your department chair or magnet coordinator.
What does this mean?
Anyone who did not put in a request before the end of the 2018-2019 school season can make their request. This includes new teachers and existing teachers who need additional items. Please do not re-submit requests, as it confuses the process. We have reviewed all the received requests from May 2019 and will send you email updates, so you know the status of your order.
What next?
Fill out the attached form and turn it into your department chair or magnet coordinator by September 25, 2019. Department chairs, please PONY or drop off original documents to CAST Med, CTE Office once they have been collected.
