The information on this page is derived from advisories produced during a school year by the Kern County Superintendent of Schools office, which houses and administers FCMAT. As you read through these files, please bear in mind the following:

1. Wherever possible, we have tried to change our office name to "Xxxxx County Office of Education" so that if other county offices choose to use any of these advisories as templates, it will be relatively simple to substitute the office name. Many of these advisories make references to individuals and we've also tried to change those to "Xxxxx." However, we may have missed some, so please read and change the advisory(ies) as appropriate.

2. While you're reading any advisory, you can save it to your computer simply by selecting "Save" under your File menu while the file's window is active on your screen.

3. We have endeavored to list only those advisories that are of general interest. While the advisories may be of more practical use to county offices of education, any district user is, of course, invited to read through and save any of these files.

Click on any index advisory item listed above to go directly to that advisory. Click on "Back to Index" to return to the Index, etc.
