TalentEd does not tie into our active directory, so all changes must be done manually. Be sure to log in this week and check the following...
- That your building assignment is correct. If you have moved, this may need to be updated.
- That you have a supervisor listed. If you have moved positions, this may need to be updated.
- That you are assigned the correct process (Probationary/Permanent Year). IF your process was incorrect last year, it most likely advanced you incorrectly this year.
Once you have completed any tasks in your process, it can't be changed, so it is critcal to check for issues BEFORE completing tasks. Any issues can be reported on the link above and changes will be made by District Office staff. ASAP. Do NOT put in a helpdesk ticket, they will send you to HR and we will ask you to fill out the form.
The Staff Help page holds answers to many of your questions. Check there for important information.
A Few Reminders...
- Leave is open for the 26-27 school year.
- Absences that were entered this summer befor it opened were deleted when we rolled over so check the system to make sure your days are still active.
- Remember that the 5% calendar is NOT live. We try to update it as frequently as possible, but if a day is orange and one absence kicks it over the limit you will get the message that leave has been restricted.
- If you have an urgent situation on a day that is 5%, talk with your principal and they may approve emergency situations.
Professional Advancement Information
A Few Common Questions:
- When do transcripts need to be received: By Sept 1
- Where do I send them: To Dr. Melissa Herrmann
- Do I need preapproval: Yes, especially for post-Master's programs to ensure they will qualify
- How do I know if credits will meet the 5th requirement of "District or Building Goals": I will communicate out when/if credits have been approved for advancement
Contracts and Wage and Benefit Notification
Updated wage and benefit information will be sent through Records after the Finance team has all of the information rolled over and ready to go for the September payroll.
Classroom Volunteers
As we start the year, and you have volunteers in your classroom, it is important that we follow appropriate approval processes. See your building principals or secretaries when/if you will have volunteers, interns or other helpers in your room.
For Head coaches, your volunteer coaches MUST have background checks completed and approved before they can start with students.
