Balance Sheet of Life- Steer Nation Message 2-11-22

GOOD MORNING AND HAPPY FRIDAY!

Bad Weather Make-Up Plan- Graham ISD was closed for two days on February 3-4 due to inclement weather. Following is our plan regarding these missed school days. Regarding the student attendance missed days of February 3-4, we will use “banked minutes” therefore these two days will remain as student holidays. Regarding the staff missed days of February 3-4, we will use the 2021-2022 School Calendar Bad Weather days of Friday, March 11, 2022,  and Monday, April 18, 2022, as staff workdays.

GISD Board of Trustees Approve 5 Additional Local Leave Days- In October of 2021, the administration considered the topic of requesting the board extend COVID Leave days via a resolution. We made the decision to hold off and evaluate this again in the second semester. Due to the ongoing pandemic and other issues, many staff members have exhausted their Local Personal Leave and/or their State Personal Leave. Our Board of Trustees approved adding five additional local leave days for each employee. These days are not connected to COVID. These days will be credited to your local leave balance and will be carried forward in subsequent years should you not need them this year.
