Finally, thank you to everyone who has already submitted their agenda for Wednesday’s early release (they are due to Sean & your director by today.) Remember, if your site is not going to start focusing on Formative Assessment as a piece of your PLC team work this week, you still need to send us your agenda, but you must also send us the plan for when you anticipate your PLC teams will be ready to engage in this new learning and work. Please contact your director if clarification is needed.

i-Safe Information

Posted on November 4, 2013 by Christine Ermold, Ed.D.

Teaching internet safety is required annually as a condition of continuing our E-Rate funding. KPBSD adopted the i-Safe materials to provide teachers with the resources, background, and support information necessary to be able to teach these skills and the related content. Teachers in multigrade sites should choose one grade level of content to focus on each year, and rotate the materials so students end up learning from all grade levels at some point in their school experience.
Principals must collect the verification forms each year from their teachers.
The forms are due (for the whole school at once- not to be submitted one class at a time,) annually to IT by May 1^st (it is on the deadlines list.)

All the teaching materials and verification forms are available online from the curriculum webpage by selecting “i-Safe,” which is listed under “Health” or by following this link: http://www.kpbsd.k12.ak.us/departments.aspx?id=22489
