Fill out the form with the following answers:

  • Location of Activity
  • Facilitator/Supervisor(person who will sign off that the activity was completed)

**Activity hours can be on-going. You DO NOT have to put in a pre-approval request for the same activity that you will complete over time. You ONLY need to submit a pre-approval request for EACH individual activity. See examples below:

Example 1: (One-Time Activity)
Activity: Shredding – Will shred papers in the main office.
Location: IU29 MAC
Date: September 8, 2021
Time: 2:30 – 3:30pm
Facilitator/Contact Person: Paula Hromyak
# of Hours: 1

Example 2: (On-Going Activity)
Activity: Breakfast Duty – Will prep breakfast in the morning.
Location: MAC – Cafeteria or Woody’s

Time: 10 min per date (time could fluctuate from 10 – 30 min per date)
Facilitator/Contact Person: Tom Wood/Cafeteria Supervisor/Sp. Ed Supervisor
# of Hours: 10

After you submit the pre-approval request, it will go to the appropriate person(s) to start the approval process. The process will be:

  1. Fill out the request form.
  2. Request Status:
  • If the request has been denied, you will receive an email stating that it was denied and why.
  • If the request has been approved, you will receive an email stating, “needs action.” Meaning you are approved to complete the activity.
  • If the request has been returned for “more information needed,” you can edit your request and re-submit. (DO NOT submit another request! ONLY edit the current request!)
  1. Once the request has been approved (needs action), you can now start the requested activity.
    • Every time you complete an activity or part of an activity, have the facilitator/contact person initial/date the 10 hour activity log form.
  2. When the requested activity is fully complete, you can click on the “Task Complete” button at the bottom of the request form.
  • Email a copy of your initialed activity log to schua@iu29.org or send through office mail to Abra - SP ED 2nd Fl.
  1. Once your activity log is received and verified the hours were completed, you will receive a COMPLETED approval email and the hours will be deducted from the total hours still needed.
