    Anyone with internet access, including:

    ·        district employees

    ·        parents

    ·        community members

    ·        students

    …can view a READ-ONLY version of your SCIP by clicking on the appropriate link in the upper right-hand corner of the SCIP homepage and then selecting your school from the list provided.

    Who can add Administrator Notes to the SCIP?

     

    District employees that have rights to your school calendar in CAMPUS can view your SCIP and add Administrator Notes.  The employee must login to the SCIP with their CAMPUS username and password in order to view the SCIP and add Administrator Notes. 

     

    It was brought to our attention that some elementary school staff members do not have rights to their school calendar in CAMPUS and therefore are not able to view their school’s SCIP or add Administrator Notes.  If this is the case and the Principal would like all staff in the school to be able to view and add Administrator Notes to the SCIP, the Principal must send an email to linda.richie@spps.org from their school email account requesting that staff be given view rights; a list of the staff names must be attached to that email.

    Who can reply to Administrator Notes?

     

    Only individuals with edit rights can reply to Administrator Notes.  (Principals and Assistant Principals are automatically included in this group.)

    Who can edit the SCIP?

     

    The Principal and Assistant Principal automatically get these rights.  In addition, anyone who had edit rights from the previous year would still be able to edit the SCIP (unless the Principal requested to have those rights removed).  If a district employee or site council member needs to have rights to edit their SCIP, the Principal must login to the SCIP and submit the necessary Electronic Request Form from the "Select" section of the SCIP (see example below).  Anyone with edit rights can also add Administrator Notes and reply to Administrator Notes.

    Who can sign the SCIP?

     

    Principals are automatically set up with the right to sign their school's SCIP.  In addition, anyone who had Site Council signature rights from the previous year would still be able to sign the SCIP (unless the Principal requested to have those rights removed).  If a Site Council chairperson needs to have rights to sign the SCIP, the Principal must login to the SCIP and submit the necessary Electronic Request Form from the "Select" section of the SCIP (see example below).

     

    NOTE:  Once the Principal or a Site Council chair signs the SCIP, editing is no longer allowed.  The Principal can delete his/her signature if necessary to re-open the SCIP for further editing. The Principal may re-open the SCIP for further editing up until the time the SCIP is approved and signed by one of the District level staff listed on the signature page. (In the fall, the SCIPs will automatically be re-opened for further editing in order that schools might update/adjust their Data Conclusions, Goals, Initiatives, etc. in response to the latest test results, enrollment/budget/staffing changes, etc.)

    What if I forgot my CAMPUS username or password?

    Within the SCIP login page, there is a link titled “Forgot your password?”   Click on this link and enter your email address.  You will receive an email reply with your CAMPUS user name and password.  If you don’t already have a CAMPUS user name and password, you will receive this message: “The email address submitted was not found in the Campus records. If you are a staff member with a Lotus Notes email account send an email to linda.richie@spps.org. Request that she lookup and email your username and password to you.”

    What if I have further questions?

     

    If you have further questions, please contact Patrick Romey at (651) 767-8130 or patrick.romey@spps.org.
