Good Morning,
Split Class Pay and Substitute Shortage: At this point in time the district is not using day to day substitutes from Kelly Services. If at any point in time 5 or more students are added to your class I NEED you to fill out the split class paperwork and submit it to your building secretary and principal. If you have students split in to you room for an extended period of time, I need you to fill out the paperwork daily for any day you have 5 or more students. I am attaching the writeable PDF form to this email for your use. If you have questions, please reach out to your building rep first and then your level officer.
