Please Read: Here is the Link<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n From HR (sent in an email earlier this month):\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Just a quick reminder that the deadline for staff to submit their \u201cExtended School Days Request for Absences\u201d to building-level leaders is\u00a0today.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As you start collecting these requests, please add them to the Google sheet, here<\/a>. All requests must be submitted to HR by Monday, May 13th<\/sup><\/strong> so HR Leadership can begin the review process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will find that the spreadsheet includes a space for administrative notes. Please provide HR with any constraints or other information to be considered when reviewing requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n HR aims to respond to staff by\u00a0Friday, May 17th.<\/strong>\u00a0Once the approval decisions are made, staff will need to enter their leave into UKG before the payroll cut-off (Sunday, June 16th)\u00a0with<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\u00a0first and second-level approvals to properly process payroll for the end of the year. Note, if UKG leave requests are not approved\u00a0before<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\u00a0the submission of the employee\u2019s timesheet, the leave will not be properly recorded on their June check. This will require a \u201cTime\/Leave Change Request (Prior Period)\u201d submission. Additionally, for those staff members requesting time off as Personal Leave, if the staff member does not have sufficient leave banks (personal leave and personal carryover), the time off may result in Unpaid Time Off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Youth Truth Reminder: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Please\u00a0process your YouthTruth data with your staff\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0share key positives and areas for growth, as well as next steps, with your families and students\u00a0<\/strong>by the end of the school year. Principals, you are strongly encouraged to additionally\u00a0process<\/strong>\u00a0your school\u2019s data with your families and students, particularly, with your\u00a0principal\u2019s student advisory team<\/strong>, with the intention of setting school improvement and student learning growth goals (SLGGS). However, processing with these groups is not required this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From Aimee Snyder: Congratulations to BTA, LPMS, LPHS and MVHS!!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The message below was sent to the BLS Board of Directors directly from Matchstick Consulting, Oregon Health Authority\u2019s contractor leading Sources of Strength statewide.\u00a0 It is announcing Bend-La Pine Schools\u2019 Sources of Strength award recipients.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Student Winners:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Gunther Karle<\/strong>, La Pine High School<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peyton Thrasher<\/strong>, La Pine High School<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jay Beagles<\/strong>, Mountain View High School<\/p>\n\n\n\n Staff Winners:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Kelly Peters<\/strong>, Bend Tech Academy<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stuart Johnson<\/strong>, La Pine Middle School<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lani McQuilkin, Amanda Armstrong, and Lindsay Seibel<\/strong>, Deschutes County Health Services<\/p>\n\n\n\n Team Winners:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n La Pine Middle School Sources of Strength Team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n These are nomination-based awards for outstanding students, staff, and teams, out of the ~100 Oregon schools implementing Sources of Strength this year.

This Section 504 legal conference features Julie Weatherly, Esq., and is designed to provide learning opportunities to strengthen and grow the leaders in the field. There are opportunities for basic and advanced sessions. Buildings to cover cost, group rates available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Having attended multiple conference sessions featuring Julie Weatherly, Esq., our administrative team can attest to her engaging and informative presentations. This is an opportunity not to be missed for administrators seeking to deepen their knowledge and expertise in Section 504 compliance.
