It’s summer and for fans that means baseball. The Fun Factor Committee has arranged a trip to see the Texas Rangers take on the Houston Astros June 22. There may be tickets still available if you want to cheer on the teams, have a few hot dogs and hang out with friends from work. Contact Sam Govea at ext. 4216 or Julie Stearman at ext. 4367. Reserve a spot on the bus to travel with the group.
The Human Resources Office has added the Deer Oaks monthly newsletter to the employee intranet so these materials can be accessible to employees all the time. Deer Oaks is the district’s Employee/Dependent Assistance Program, EDAP, provider. Each newsletter contains information about topics related to work and life. For supervisors, the topics focus on workplace morale, employee relations and various other issues. For employees, there is a variety of topics addressed from finance to health to parenting, depending on the issue. Deer Oaks, as the district’s EDAP, provides employees and their dependents with six pre-paid counseling sessions per problem incident. Find PDF versions of the newsletter on the intranet under “Resources” or here.
