BISD 2012 Employee Engagement Survey

On November 28, Gallup will send all employees an invitation via e-mail to participate in the 2012 BISD Q12 Employee Engagement Survey, which will again provide valuable feedback on various aspects of employee engagement. The invitation will include a unique access code and a link to Gallup's Web site where you can complete the online survey.

Gallup will keep individual responses to the survey completely confidential.

We are looking for 100 percent participation. Please take five minutes to complete the survey in order for your opinions to be heard.

Phone Messages 09-22-11 BAEOP Fundraiser item

As we prepare for the upcoming holiday, please make sure all phone messages reflect current information concerning days off and returning dates for your campus or department.

Campus principals need to make sure that the main campus voice mail message reflect pertinent information for your campus.

Important Information from TIMS Technical Services

09-22-11 BAEOP Fundraiser item Please remember to power off all computers, monitors, and printer equipment before you leave for Thanksgiving Break. Even though we have a nightly shutdown procedure in place, we want to ensure all electronic equipment is powered off over the next several days. This also includes any general purpose labs and student machines in classrooms.

When you return on Monday Nov. 28, your computer may be a little slow from being off for several days - please allow it to run a virus scan and install any missing updates.

We hope you enjoy your break!
