While students and teachers were not in the building, CCC and Operations have not stopped. Last
efforts made and call out to give students a last chance to retrieve their belongings. Offices packed
up and teachers’ rooms cleared and ready to go to our next stop in the journey as we form one
school, Rich District 227.

SPECIAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT

The student support service department has been busy this summer. All student support offices are
shut down and ready for the transition. Counselors and the registrar department have updated
transcripts, issued diplomas, and are working diligently on Flex Scheduling. The extended school
year went well, with over 35 students participating in their continued education programming and
related services. Lastly, the BELIEVE, ALPHA, and ELL teams have worked on curriculum
projects for the upcoming school year and are looking forward to the start of the year.

HUMAN RESOURCES
The Office of Human Resources is currently working with building administrators to ensure that all certified
positions are filled with highly qualified teachers. As a result of several resignations, the District has been
able to recall certified and classified personnel from a reduction in force list. Human Resources is working
with the master schedulers and educational services to ensure that the new flex mode schedule is completed
and that all students have innovative schedules and the support needed to experience academic, social, and
emotional success in the classroom. The District will recommend one administrative candidate in July and was
able to recall a few employees. Staffing levels are completed at 98%, and the remaining vacancies will be
filled by August of 2020.
