Hello Everyone,
These announcements are posted on the internet. If you have trouble reading this email or cannot use the links, you may read them on the internet.
http://www.marshalladulteducation.org/announcements.htm
Here's the announcements:
1. Payroll Time Sheets are due in the office by noon on Monday, June 27th. Please Note: This is a change from the norm. The next time sheet will be a total of 3 weeks covering the period of June 6th through the 24th. Pay date for this time period is July 8th. For those of you who have already turned in time sheets, you can just add the extra week or turn in a separate time sheet for June 20-24th. Call if you have questions. Thanks. Barb

5. The textbooks from Holy Redeemer are now at the Lyon County Government Center. They cover grade levels 1 to 4. If interested in using them or giving them to your students, stop up and take a look.
---------------------------------------------------
6. From Pat: Marshall Consortium Staff - I would like to request input from you on two issues we spoke about in our June 8th staff meeting.
What is your feeling about our consortium requesting a $10 - $20 material fee once a year of all students?
Would you be willing to be part of pilot project of creating a course outline that would be covered in a 3 month time period for your students? At the end of the 3 months the students who completed the class would receive the outline on one side of a piece of paper and on the other side would be a certificate of attendance.
Thank you for your input.

14. TECH TIP - Microsoft Keyboard Shortcuts
A keyboard shortcut is a way of accomplishing a task using the keyboard instead of the mouse. Keyboard shortcuts are a great way to increase your efficiency and speed in getting your work done. There are over 250 keyboard shortcuts in Microsoft Word
So how do you remember all these shortcuts? YOU DONT!!! You just learn and remember the ones that are important to you that you really like.
So which ones are they?
