| | Hi Shannon!! hope things are well with you!! our buses no longer deliver to individual homes...we have drop off points near the greatest concentration of kids. there have been a few times when this has caused some difficulty but very few. most parents don't mind because their kids get home earlier as a rule since we are so rural. take care, Tracy |

|
| | We have gone to drop off points within our district. We have 8 drop off points where the parents meet the bus. This still helps out the parents travel and reduces our costs. |

I am also looking for software to use in the program.
Thanks! |

| | Wow! I'm sure most of us can relate.
A few things I have done...
Make sure your pay scale looks better than Conoco's (just kidding, but true)
If you have colleges in area try to post you're openings there. Even better - try to have your program the practicum sight for their Early child/Education dept.
Work with the local high school (you'll be surprised on how many 18 year olds there are) and develop... |

|
| | That is a very common problem. I can definitely relate! Look for college students interested in elementary education. Call an advisor at a local college and they can help point you in the right direction. |

| | Grow your own, we have had the most luck hiring quality people after we became affiliated with a junior college that used our facility in the evenings to teach courses towards an AA degree. As soon as this started we were able to find motivated and willing new employees that eventually had 60 hours or more of college credit. |

| | I hired a high school girl to help with the afterschool program. She is great...I went to the office and check on grades and attendance records. She is not with a group of students by herself, but I have her responsible for the healthy you part (physical activities) then she can plan games etc, and the group instructor will be in the gym with her and their group. The advantage of... |

|
| | Does anyone use career ladder hours instead of a salary to run their program? How do the teachers respond to not getting paid? Do you have trouble keeping staff, since they are not getting paid? |
|
| | | |
|
| | We use both career ladder and pay. It works really well, but we have an option, so there are no complaints. I do , however, have trouble getting people to work even for pay. |
|
| | | |
|
| | I have a few teachers that split their time between getting paid and career ladder hours. I also have teachers who take their own students out after school to give them one on one tutoring. They seem to like it. |
|
| | | |
|
| | We have found Career Ladder to be the most helpful in "special" interest areas like, Music & Art to name a few. What happens is the teacher get paid through Career Ladder and we get regular (weekly, bi-weekly or monthly) program options that break up the regular curriculum. |
|
| | | |
|
| | I do have a lot of regular classroom teachers that use career ladder hours for tutoring. On a normal day I will have two or three. I am sure my program would not have the quality tutoring that I have if not for the staff using career ladders! |

|
| | What kind of problems are you having inputting information -- what area? Have you looked under the references tab here in the portal for the KCC instruction sheet that may pertain to the area you are having difficulty with? Have you contacted John Shively at 816-686-0850? |

| | Does anyone have a cell phone policy?
You wouldn't believe what we went through.

| | | |
|
| | In Camdenton students and faculty are not allowed to have cell phones during our before/afterschool program. The policy is in our training manuals and is discussed at our teacher academy and students and parents are given this policy at the parent/student orientation. |
|
| | | |
|
| | No written policy but we have had several "issues" and a couple of write ups due to improper monitoring of students and activities. - S. Wilson @ Republic R-III |
|
| | | |
|
| | We limit the cell phone to a dollar amount and the person who exceeds the amount pays the difference |
|
| | | |
|
| | No cell phones except Director are allowed unless off of site field trip then lead teacher carries one.
|
|
| | | |
|
| | Does anyone have any ideas to help with transportation home from our SAC programs? |
|
| | | |
|
| | Where are you located and what type of community resources (if any) are available? Can you create a collaboration with the school district?
Can someone donate or purchase a bus for you? McDonalds may be a resource to look at.
Post your situation and maybe I can offer a few solutions.

|
| | if anyone does please pass it on to our BASE program as well. We are running only two routes right now and it is costing the district $75. per day (approximatley). That does not sound like much but over a period of 100 days it adds up!

| | I recently hired one full time director to service two sites. This person will spent 1/2 of the open hours at one sight and 1/2 at the other. There will still be 2-3 hrs per day for planning, etc.. |
