3. What is Aesop Aesop is an on-line system that records absences for teachers AND requests substitutes for teachers. *There is a phone number for those that are not comfortable with technology. **Those teachers not needing a substitute still record their absences in Aesop. ***Timesheets will still be utilized for everyone, for the first 2 pay cycles to ensure Aesop is running appropriately!

4. How do I access Aesop You will go to http://www.frontlinek12.com/Aesop http://www.frontlinek12.com/Aesop to access the system Every employee’s username is 4062686000 Your password was emailed to you on or around August 14 th and is unique to you. If you didn’t get an email contact HR.

5. Teachers and Aesop Teachers drive the Aesop system. Without an absence created by a teacher then there’s nothing for Aesop to do. Once a teacher creates an absence, the system goes to work. Depending on the absence, the system has different actions. Teachers can set up a preference list and are encouraged to do so.
