6. Staff Snapshot

7. Staff Assignment must be reported for all Non-Teaching Professionals employeed during the 15=-16 school year. DO NOT REPORT TEACHERS in staff assignment. Must already have a valid Staff Snapshot record reported to L2. These are staff who would have filled out Pink Bubble Sheets on BEDS day, however there are no Bubble Sheets in 15-16. There is a form to gather necessary information from new Non-Teaching Professionals. Easy way to gather information such as TEACH ID, highest level of education, number of years professional education experience, hispanic indicator and race (optional), and PMF Description. On DW site under “Forms” Non-Teaching PMF codes are found in the SIRS Manual. If you do not see an exact title description for a staff person, choose the non-teaching PMF code that most closely matches the staff person’s current assignment. Principals: PMF assignment codes 1102-1110 will be used to link the principal to the students enrolled in the program/location that they supervise for APPR purposes. If a principal is not responsible for all grade levels within a location, report multiple Staff Assignment records for the principal, one for each grade level the principal is responsible for. All Staff Assignment records will be part of the 15-16 EOY certification, not just principals. Staff Assignment

9. The official source of PMF data for Non-Teaching Professionals will be the data you submit via the Staff Snapshot and Staff Assignment templates into L0. ●There are no Bubble Sheets this year. The official source of PMF data for teaching staff will be the data they submit via the TAA on the ePMF form. District will again have to certify the PMF data entered into the TAA. ●Teachers can’t enter ePMF data in the TAA until district loads a valid Staff Snapshot record for them and their Teach. Title = TEACHER. Official Sources of PMF Data
