    The May 20th due date for 2011-12 library mill levy allocation form is cancelled. We must wait for final budget approval, which we have not received, before allocation forms can be emailed. Besides the library mill levy ($6.00 per student), the allocation form includes boost awards. Forms will be emailed at the beginning of August, with the new due date of Friday, August 26th. Ts3 carts or Follett lists may be submitted during the summer as usual and will be ordered upon receipt of a signed allocation form.

  • 10/22/2010 -   DEADLINE: Classroom Technology Innovation Grants (CTIG) - 11/15/2010
     
    The district has allocated $1 million in savings from the 2008 DPS Bond Program to provide schools with new opportunities to address student achievement through instructional technology tools and 21st Century learning resources. These funds will be allocated to select schools via Classroom Technology Innovation Grants: CTIG.

    CTIG funds will be focused on putting impactful technology resources in the hands of students- and in doing so, address specific and individualized student learning goals while developing students' 21st Century learning skills. The district plans to award about 10 grants during this funding cycle.

    The grant application deadline is November 15, 2010. The CTIG grant application, as well as planning resources, best practice examples and FAQ's are all housed at: http://ctig.wikispaces.dpsk12.org/

    If you have any questions, please contact Jodi Hyatt.

  • 2/25/2010 -   Classroom Library: Useful Information
     
    We've added a few resources to help people get more use out of the Classroom Resource Library, which is by far the largest collection in the district.
    • Click here to access the updated list of multi-copy sets of books (there are nearly 750 different books with at least 6 copies in the collection.)
    • We also created an RSS feed of recently added titles so that you can keep track of what new stuff has come in.
    • If you don’t use a feed reader, you can click here to see the new books instead.
