Q: Â Â Why did the timesheets for LETRS keep changing?
A: Â Â APS used both operational and grant monies to fund teacher compensation for LETRS. Different funding sources required different timesheets. For the 24-25 school year, we will only be using the Weekly Timesheet, unless we are able to secure additional grant funding. Always check this site for the most up-to-date information or email letrs@aps.edu. Weekly Timesheets will continue to be used in 25-26 as well.
Q: Â Â Why are there deadlines for turning in our timesheets? What if I'm not finished with the unit?Â
A: Â Â Deadlines for timesheets help us ensure we are compensating teachers for current LETRS work with the current year's funding. When timesheets are submitted from prior school/fiscal years, the accounting and funding for that is no longer available. Deadlines also encourage participants to stay on pace as well!
Q: Â Â I submitted a timesheet for online work done in a unit, and the time requested was less than 13.5 hours. Later, I went back and added more time to my online work for that same unit. May I submit a timesheet for that extra time in that unit?
A: Â Â No. You may only submit a timesheet for a LETRS component once. This includes live sessions, online work, reading/bridge-to-practice, and the Structured Literacy course. Once you have been compensated for that component of your LETRS work, you may not add additional hours to that component.
