Teacher and Staff Training and Development Ideas
The committee would like to support and/or facilitate a current aim or goal of the leadership team in relation to teacher development, classroom management, or teacher celebration.
We plan to extend an invitation to the leadership team to see which areas we can help foster this assistance and support.
C.
Board show of support
The leadership team is compiling a list of current practices in place to celebrate and recognize teacher strengths. This will allow the committee to identify areas in which the board can become more involved in a show of support.
The committee reached out to Dr. Reyes about his/the leadership team's thoughts about a possible Teacher of the Year Award. Due to the school's size and current practices of celebrating teacher excellence, this idea does not feel necessary or appropriate at this time.
Emilye shared her take aways from the Development breakfast, which she was able to attend recently.
