Note from Me :)
Principals and Assistant Principals,
I hope your first two days on campus were enjoyable and productive. We are so excited to see all of you at CNA Training and Team GISD!
Below are some reminders and important information. Please review the information carefully as it contains time-sensitive details.
Reminders
*GPC’s should be conducted by August 1
*Principals, please provide me access to your Outlook calendar if I don’t have it already
*Be sure to earmark a ½ day of training with your staff to review the Code of Conduct and behavior management/discipline procedures
*Below you will find a link to the memo from this week's WAIP reflecting requirements in the Pre-K daily schedule. Please read it carefully and ensure your Pre-K schedule is in compliance
Note: All campuses with Pre-K are required to at least offer breakfast to AM students and lunch to PM students
*Below is a link to a document that outlines upcoming meetings/professional development for principals and assistant principals. Links to WAIP documents and Sched are embedded. Please note that New Principal Training and Area Meetings have been added for August 2. Be sure to register!
*T-TESS Certification:
-Returning administrators need to complete the re-certification test by August 1; certificates should be turned in to Melissa Hill.
-New principals who have previously been T-TESS trained (either in GISD or another district) will need to submit their certificate by August 16.
-New principals who have not been previously trained and have not attended the Region 10 training sessions will need to get it done as soon as possible. They will not be able to lead T-TESS training or begin goal setting meetings with teachers until that requirement is complete.

From Nelson: Organizational Learning
AD’s,
Can you help disseminated this link among principals/AP's through your newsletters, websites, meetings, etc?
We sent communication before the break but are beefing up additional information before school starts.
As always, principals can select on-demmand PD for campus teachers via this link (also on the GISD website – scroll down) and we will be offering open labs sessions for principals/AP’s once the IDF’s are back on contract. More to come on the latter ASAP.
A WAIP memo will be going out once again next week with all of the above info and more.
Please let me know if you have questions.
Best,
