During the 2008-2009 school year, the
staff of Barbers Hill ISD will be allowed to request exchange days
if they have attended a training session that meets the following
guidelines:
1)
Attendance at the session must not be during a regular
contract day.
2) A
total of six clock hours must be accumulated for each exchange day.
Several shorter sessions may be added together to equal the required
time. No less than one full day will be allowed.
3) Sessions
attended must apply to the assigned curriculum area, job assignment
and district/campus improvement plan.
4) Sessions
must be pre-approved by the campus principal or director.
(Technology related training, to be exchanged for training scheduled
on a Technology Training day, must also be approved in advance by
the Assistant Superintendent of Technology) If he/she is
unavailable, contact Dr. Gayle Woodall. Sessions attended without
prior approval, may be submitted, but there will be no guarantee of
an exchange day.
5) Proof
of attendance must be submitted following the session along with a
statement of intended implementation or use of the knowledge and
skills acquired, i.e. what will be done with what was learned.
6) Sessions
must be attended between June 1, 2008 and May 30, 2009. At
least
one exchange day must be earned prior to the end of
1st semester to be eligible for the April 10, 2009 exchange day.
Days designated for exchange are
November 24, 2008 and April 10, 2009. Technology training days
are August 18 and 19, 2008.
If attendance at a workshop cannot be
verified and the exchange day(s) is taken, the employee will be
docked on the last paycheck for the year.
