UKG Site Maintenance<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In preparation for our anticipated Go Live date of February 13, staff will not be able to access UKG features starting on February 2nd. This will allow our implementation team to perform site maintenance and users (except a select few) won’t have access to any UKG functionality. Attempts to login between February 2nd and the 13th, will receive the following message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n UKG Recruitment Trainings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you to North Star and Mountain View for hosting our first two trainings. We are still editing the powerpoint to reflect administrator feedback. Prior to February 13th, we will share the powerpoint with all admin and office managers.

Positions that are open past February 10th will need to be screened, interviewed and hired through UKG. During the weekend of February 11th\/12th, our UKG implementation team will transition open positions to UKG (you don\u2019t need to do anything) and we\u2019ll copy applicant data over to UKG so that those who applied through Frontline will now have their data within UKG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Time and Leave FAQs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here<\/a> is a document that we will update as new questions arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Classified Job Postings and Hiring Update for Temporary Positions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We are closely approaching the date when some temporary classified new hires will not be eligible for benefits and be excluded from the bargaining unit because their employment in 2022-23 will be less than 80 days. HR will be editing temporary job postings to reflect this as the less than 80 day employment window ensues (see this link<\/a> for the impacted jobs and dates).<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is very important for administrators\/supervisors involved in offering jobs to new temporary hires after these dates that these prospective employees are aware of the non-benefited status of their position before they accept the position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Classified Evaluations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In a few weeks you’ll be receiving information from HR identifying the classified employees who need to be evaluated this year. As a reminder, we rotate staff so that they are only required to be evaluated every other year (after their first year probationary period). Temporary employees are not required to be evaluated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n From Jennifer Hauth<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1gsglQmblzQfkRIlqcmu5kxj6qaSBUwmWbhXHb4M8DyY\/edit?usp=sharing<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n February 9:<\/strong> La Pine Middle School Classroom\/Environment Observation<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 9:<\/strong> MS Work Session @Cascade Middle School at 3:00-4:30<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 13:<\/strong> Principal Professional Development @Board Room at 3:00-4:30<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 15: <\/strong>Educator Network Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 16:<\/strong> Cascade Middle School Classroom\/Environmental Observation<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 21:<\/strong> High Desert Middle School Classroom\/Environmental Observation<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 23:<\/strong> MS Work Session Cancelled<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n February 22-24:<\/strong> Juan is out of office attending NABE Conference<\/p>\n\n\n\n February 27: <\/strong>Assistant Principals and Deans PD 7:30-8:30 @ Ed Center; room 314<\/p>\n\n\n\n March 8:<\/strong> Pacific Crest Middle School Classroom\/Environmental Observation<\/p>\n\n\n\n Team, Starting next week, I want to change up our horizontal meetings a little bit.
