    Interns

    Teachers who have completed the Supervision of Interns course or Clinical Education course are eligible to have an intern.  The co-teaching model is used at ORES.  If you are interested in a block student or intern, please update the TASUS form given twice a year.  Anyone receiving credit for completing a college class activity or expectation must be on an approved list by the district for liability reasons.

    Inventories

    Each teacher will be responsible for maintaining a yearly inventory of equipment and curriculum materials.  A hard copy will be given to administrators at the end of each year.  A complete classroom inventory should be done the first week of school for your records.  An update should be completed and submitted at post- planning.

    Junk Food

    ORES staff will follow these guidelines:

    • ANY food in classrooms should be in a secured container.  Food should not be left in classrooms for extended amounts of time.
    • Students and parents are encouraged to bring (send) nutritious foods for snack and lunch. 
    • Staff model healthy food choices.
    • Soda machines on campus are only for adults to purchase soft drinks to drink themselves.

    Leave Time

    The Leon County School Board Leave Request form:
    • The AESOP process must be completed to request a substitute. A Leon County School Board, Leave Request form must be filled out for all leave.  You must include your legal name, type of leave, correct beginning and ending date, and time.
    • If you are requesting leave in advance, a form must be completed and signed by an administrator at least 2 working days before the leave is to begin.  When you are sick, a leave request form must be completed the day you return to school. 

    ASEOP:

    • All instructional staff must enter their absence in AESOP.  
    • If you are ill or have an emergency please notify administration ASAP.  If possible enter your absence in AESOP so the system can begin looking for a sub.
