Inventory Schedule and iPads
A reminder there will be an RCSD inventory of assets done within the next two weeks.  Please see this schedule. A reminder all iPads must have the cases removed prior to the District-wide inventory.

Unfortunately, some iPad cases are difficult to remove and if not done correctly, will break the iPad screens. To prevent this, Laura asked the Information Systems Technician team to assist. 

Please move all iPads into a room in the Admin building (if needed, feel free label each iPad screen with a post-it where the iPad came from).  Email your site technician which room the iPads can be located in.  Your site technician will come and remove the cases from the iPads and leave them in the room for RCI to access. 

Once the inventory is complete, please feel free to put the cases back on the iPads, or reach out to your site technician if you would like assistance putting the cases back on the iPads.

New Direction in the Development of Rubrics- Thomas Guskey  "Instead of developing rubrics by starting in the middle and working up and down, educators need to start at the top by describing excellent performance. In other words, start by clearly articulating the top level of performance, and then work down.  What does it look like? What kind of evidence or demonstration shows it? How will the teacher recognize it?"

This is something helpful to keep in hand for families in need not only during the holidays, but all year long. LiveScan Update The Roseville PD is no longer doing live scans for fingerprinting. Please refer parents to other resources. Fire Marshall Inspection Follow-up was completed with the fire inspector to clarify what each school site needs to have posted. Please review the following and make sure your site is ready to go. In the front office/in safety plan binder- easy to access: - Post the telephone number for the fire department. - List of who does what during a fire emergency. In each room by the door: - Post an evacuation map. - Instructions for what to do in an emergency (how do you account for kids, communicate, etc).

This can be done through an email, newsletter, blog, etc. If your students WILL be touching the animals, parents must fill out the SIG Activities Waiver. If your students will NOT be touching animals and will only be looking at the animals from a distance, you do not need to have parents fill out the waiver. Contact Amy Banks or Schelli Landreth with questions. EDUCATIONAL SERVICES LCFF Funds If you are placing any orders using LCFF money, here is a helpful resource to look at when determining if LCFF can be used. When in doubt, always reach out to your coach or Rachael.
