APT Handbook

Preface

Procedures contained within the Weld County School District 6 APT Employees Handbook are based on district policies adopted by the Greeley-Evans School District 6 Board of Education (“Board”). This handbook is not all-inclusive and does not contain all personnel policies. All policy and regulation revisions are subject to Board approval. The handbook is based on policies and procedures, as they exist at the time of publication, and may change without advance notice. All previously issued handbooks and inconsistent memoranda are superseded. 

An effort has been made to ensure there is no inconsistency between this handbook and other regulations. If a discrepancy or omission exists between this handbook and district policy, district policy will prevail. If a discrepancy or omission exists between this handbook and local, state or federal laws, the laws will prevail. 

You are expected to review and become familiar with all policies and regulations. A complete set of Board policies and regulations are available on the district website at www. greeleyschools.org

Welcome

Welcome Administrative, Professional, Technical (APT) Staff,

Whether you have just joined our staff or have been with Greeley-Evans School District 6 for a while, we are confident that you will find a dynamic and rewarding workplace, and we look forward to a productive and dedicated effort toward creating successful student achievement for our community. We consider the employees of our district to be its most valuable resource. This handbook has been written to serve as the guide for the employer/employee relationship. 

There are several things to keep in mind about this handbook. First, it contains only general information and guidelines. It is not intended to be comprehensive or to address all the possible applications of, or exceptions to, the general policies and procedures described. 

Secondly, the procedures, practices, policies and benefits described here may be modified or discontinued from time to time. We will try to inform you of any changes as they occur.  You should consult the handbook regularly as a reference guide.

Some subjects described in this handbook are covered in detail in official policy documents. Refer to these documents for specific information because the handbook only briefly summarizes those guidelines and benefits. 

Contact human resources for questions.  Again, welcome to Greeley-Evans School District 6.

Sincerely,

Deirdre Pilch, Ed.D., Superintendent of Schools and Annette Overton, Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources and Strategic Planning
