team.

Teacher is in the Non Probationary 1 category and is not assigned Peer Observers. They stop you in the

hall and ask if you could complete the peer observation.

Send them to the Opt in Request site

What happens to a teacher who is placed on remediation during

the LEAP 12/13 school year?

In all likelihood all remediation teachers will

remain in LEAP this year and all the details are currently

Once we get through this deck we would like to give you a

chance to play in the training environment.

The environment will NOT look exactly the same as we have just

discussed but the entering of the

Observation Functionality will.

Caution

Caseload Assignments: What and When to ExpectGoal is to distribute your caseload assignments by August 22nd. ( : date may be delayed)

Caseloads will be loaded into Schoolnet on September 10th when the tool goes live. Use our spreadsheet to make sure your caseload matches.

Once you receive your caseload assignment file, review it and if you need to request changes, work with your PO directors. If changes are required, the Ops Team needs to be notified, so we can upload the changes into Schoolnet and update the Principal’s spreadsheet. 48 hour turnaround please)

PO Directors will receive a weekly caseload progress report.
