What is the deadline for OASIS Employee Announcements?
EOD Wednesday for items to be included in that Thursday’s OASIS Employee Announcements email to all staff.
Items can be posted at any time and will be visible on the Employee Announcements page immediately. The email will include all items posted in the previous week. It will also include a link to the Employee Announcements page so people can see older items.
Can my Employee Announcement be promoted to the employee home page or pinned to the top of the Employee Announcements page?
The employee home page only has room for three announcements at any one time and the Employee Announcements page is most helpful if a variety of recent announcements are visible. Therefore, the Communications team is very selective about what items are promoted on one of these pages.
If you believe that your announcement meets the following criteria, please email newsline@sfusd.edu for your request to be considered:
- Your announcement applies to a vast majority, if not all, SFUSD employees.
- Your announcement is particularly urgent or timely and needs a high level of visibility.
- You believe that staff or leaders from other departments would agree that your announcement would take precedence over other important announcements.
