Summer Session 2009 Student Registration Form

Greetings,

Attached below is the ALC K-5 student summer registration form. Designated Site Leaders and Data Entry Clerks should be printing and disseminating this form to classroom teachers. Classroom teachers complete this form for students who will be invited to summer session based on one or more of the following ALC qualifying criteria:
1) One or more year's behind in classwork
2) Two or more grade levels behind in achievement or local (MCA) test scores. All not meeting or partially meeting standards qualify
3) Chemically dependent
4) Pregnant or parent

6) Having experienced mental health problems
7) Having experienced homelessness during the last six months
8) Are or were on an IEP
9) Expelled or excluded
10) Speaks English as a Second Language or has Limited English Proficiencies
11) Referred by district

The completed form should be sent home with the student for parent signature and given to the Data Entry Clerk or Site Leader when returned to school. The Data Entry Clerk is charged with entering all invited students into the ALC on-line summer session registration database. This includes entering summer session drop-off information that may be different than the home address. Site Leaders and Data Entry Clerks must enter all students that received a summer session invite form ---including students that may not have returned the form. All returned forms are collected by the Site Leader and Data Entry Clerk. A copy of the form can be made for use in summer session, the originals should be returned to the ALC office (ALC-Elementary, 1780 W7th St.) Data Entry Clerks are responsible for correcting student information entered into the ALC registration database (especially address information!) until the last day of regular school. The Data Entry Clerk's job is completed on the last day of school

ALC Elementary Continual Learning Plans



Greetings,

Attached below is a document (.pdf) containing the ALC-Elementary K-6 Continual Learning Plans (CLP's). Site Leaders and teachers should use this document as a starting point in preparation for beginning an ALC session (Extended Day, Summer Session, Intersession). The CLP that each classroom teacher is required to complete following an ALC session is identical to the attached document below. All CLP's must be completed on-line, at the ALC Continual Learning Plan site. The document below should be used as a reference point for planning, not as a template for completing a hard copy CLP.

The ALC Continual Learning Plan site is located at: https://alcelem.spps.org/site/clp/users_LogIn.php

ALC Extended Day Staffing and Payroll

Greetings,

Attached below is a .pdf with an embedded movie, an interactive worksheet, and some text that describes ALC Extended Day staffing and payroll guidelines. I have created this tool for you to use when planning your ALC program. There is sometimes confusion, especially when blending multiple funding streams, as to how much ALC will pay for educational services and what amount/kind of staffing is permitted in ALC programs. The attached .pdf should help you quickly and easily determine the maximum daily payroll hours, by job category, that you may submit to ALC ----all based on your average daily attendance and the amount of hours that ALC operates within your program structure per day. Please call me if you have any further questions!

Summer Session 2008 Staff Surveys

Greetings,

All ALC K-12 Summer Session 2008 staff had the opportunity to complete a survey regarding summer session policies, procedures, and practices. A significant amount of staff members (521) completed the survey. The attached document below contains a summary of the survey results. The 4 page document includes the 4 "categories" of staff surveyed (administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, and support staff), the questions for each group, the mean (arithmetic avg.), and the amount of surveys (N) completed for each group. The survey also included other information ( staff names, comments/narratives, school and class assignment, etc.) which are not included in the summary document .
