Colleagues,

Similar to Ms. Bradshaw's position at our school, we are offering another hourly paraprofessional position for someone who would be interested in working with "one" female first grade student with special needs. The person's tentative hours would be from 8:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m., which is five hours a day (excluding lunch). If you know of anyone who may be interested and meets the eligibility requirements, please have the individual contact Ms. Bradley-Williams in the main office. The school phone number is (305) 653-0066.

Thank You

PD Password Change

In most instances, when you log on to the district's PD site, they will ask for a new password. In the past, you were using your six-digit employee number. This time, the website seeks an eight digit code. One recommendation is to use your birthdate. (XXXX19xx).

For example, if your birthday is September 8, 1961, you can choose to make your password, (09081961). Another suggestion is to use the same code you use to access your district e-mail.

Choose as you wish
