Aldine I.S.D. Teacher Handbook - Aldine Independent School District

Lesson plans will be submitted and monitored weekly by the principal or his/her designee.
Each building principal or assistant principal will create a system to make lesson plans available for
substitutes in the event of unexpected teacher illness.
E. SIGN-IN AND OUT RECORDS
Each principal will maintain a sign-in and out register for all professional staff members. Time cards
are to be maintained on all non-professional personnel.
F. SUBSTITUTE TEACHER SIGN-IN AND OUT
A separate sign-in and sign-out record will be kept on all substitute teachers in order to be able to
have accurate records for the business office. These teachers are to follow the same work day as a
regular classroom teacher. This record must be forwarded to the payroll office for pay purposes.
G. TEACHER WORK DAY AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT DAY SCHEDULES
School Day: Teachers 8:20-4:10
Office Personnel 8 ½ hours including 30 minute lunch
Bus schedules could alter sign in and sign out times. Any deviation from standard time for
school start and end must be approved by the area superintendent.
Work Day/Professional Development Day: 8:00-3:30
Building Professional Development schedules may be adjusted to 8:00-3:00 if building staff
agrees to shorten the time allotted for lunch or to have a working lunch.
Teachers will be allowed to leave campus during lunch as long as they return to the campus on
time. Teachers must sign in and out when leaving the campus and returning.
H. REGULAR DUTY
Teacher and paraprofessional duty time will be determined by the building principal. A duty roster
will be given to each teacher and one will be posted in the office. Special duty is a vital part of every
teacher’s and paraprofessional’s responsibility. It is imperative that each staff member assumes
his/her share of the responsibility of a given assignment. Each staff member on duty is responsible
for proper student conduct in and around his/her duty station; therefore, close observation is
necessary.
I. SUPERVISION
Students should never be left unsupervised. If it is necessary for a teacher to leave the classroom for
any reason, a neighboring teacher, or some other person designated by the building principal may be
requested to assume this responsibility.
J. ACCIDENT PREVENTION
Students are not to be allowed in any laboratory without the instructor being present. Safety rules
should be on display.
It is of the greatest importance that this policy be followed without exception. This policy is to
include all CTE classes and computer labs. No student will be permitted to work during midmorning
and mid-afternoon breaks, during lunch periods or without teacher supervision after school.
The instructor is to be in the labs at all times when students are present.
