Description:  Should you have any questions over the financials, please contact our office before the meeting to discuss.

Description:  You will be receiving information concerning this conference at the board meeting. Please review and contact Mrs. Sharp with any questions concerning hotel reservations and/or registration.

Description:  Mr. Velasco will make a presentation to the board over the Highly Qualified Teacher Report. This report does not require any action on behalf of the board but must appear in the minutes for compliance with TEA.

Description:  RLISD will purchase a substitute tracking system called AESOP. The system will cut out man hours required to contact substitutes as the automated system will do it instead of the secretaries or principals. The system will also track absent from duty requests. Due to the new healthcare requirements, substitute hours will need to be tracked and AESOP will take care of that as well.

Description:  RLISD will purchase the Time Clock Plus system which will provide better management of hourly employees. This system is much better than our current time clock (punch in and out system). It allows monitoring and calculating hours from a computer and cuts out tracking down time cards. It reduces the time used to count and/or calculate hourly employees time and absences.
