Consistent attendance and adherence to assigned work schedules is a professional expectation to help ensure students continue to receive the best possible education and support every day.
To utilize PN, sick, or vacation time, please follow all school site/department/district's protocols for reporting absences and requesting time off.
Here are a few pointers for being a reliable team member:
Communicate any upcoming extended leave of absences with as much advance notice as possible.
Avoid consistent and recurring absences (i.e., calling out every Monday or every Friday).
Schedule personal vacations during already scheduled school session breaks.
Schedule personal appointments/activities during non-work hours.
GGUSD utilizes the Frontline Absence Management System for Special Education (IA2 & IA3), Transitional Kindergarten, and Combo paraeducators. This system uses your assigned work email and allows easy access to reporting absences, scheduling a substitute, and logging emergency time off. When reporting absences after 7:00 AM, call (714) 663-6455 or (714) 663-6191 if you need assistance with logging your absence. All other General Education and Preschool paraeducators will contact the school site/department secretary directly to report an absence.

When you know you are going to be absent:
SPED (IA2, IA3), TKIA, and Combo IA log absences on Frontline and contact the site secretary immediately.
All other General Education and Preschool IAs report absences to the site secretary immediately.
Communicate with your team immediately. This includes the school secretary, supervising teacher, and any personnel that may benefit from preparing for your absence.
Do not wait. The sooner your absence is posted, the more time your team has to prepare and seek coverage.
Make sure your Frontline profile job title, shift hours, and school site(s) are correct. If they are not, contact:
Office of Special Education Secretary for IA2, IA3
Office of Personnel Services for TKIA and Combo IA
