Everything you need to know about Printed Student Directories

Each fall, schools are working on their printed student directories, which are typically handled by a volunteer or parent group.  Here’s the basics of what you need to know about printed student directories…

Questions that we typically hear from parents………………………….

Q1.  I want my child/family information removed from the directory, how do I do that?
A1.   Call your child’s school office ask to be on the “Do Not Release” list – and the school office can go into each child’s record and mark the check box for DO NOT RELEASE and your child’s name and your family information will not be released in the printed directories.

Q2.  I want my child listed in the directory, but I want to edit what information is provided for our family…
A2.  You may log into Infinite Campus and edit your information that is available, here are the steps https://wdmtech.wordpress.com/2012/05/23/updateic/

 

Questions that we typically hear from schools or parent groups that are putting the directories together………………………….

Q3.  What options do we have available for the printed directory?  and how do we access those options in Infinite Campus
A3.  There are three options available, here is a description of each option and how to access this option within Campus.  https://wdmtech.wordpress.com/2014/09/29/student-directories-2/

$25 added to your copier balance

As of today, Sept 23rd,  $25 was added to all certified staff/office staff copier balances.

Why?
Although we’re in progress for replacing PrintGroove,  it will be late October before the replacement will be available for testing.  Considering all the problems we have run into with PrintGroove, it was requested that we shift some resources to enable better access to the copiers to get us through until the new system is fully ready.

So where did this $25 come from?
In our contract with Laser Resources, each certified/office staff member was to receive $25 for the copier and $75 for the print shop…  so the change did not cost the district anything, we just re-allocated $25 from your print shop allocation.  Now the allocation for the year is $50 for the copier and $50 for the print shop. Keep in mind – this isn’t a maximum or a limit – your building/department can always choose to add to your copier or print shop allocation.
