Here are the highlights of the department chair meeting on Tuesday, 9/10/13.
- This Early Release Wednesday, we will be continuing the work on our SLOs. The focus of our time will be on writing about the standards and content portion for each of our SLOs. Teachers are asked to stay on target with this work so we can address questions and concerns as they arise.
- Alli is requesting a list of current technology for every department. Therefore, I will be putting this together and asking each of you to proof read it for accuracy. Additionally, I will submit a request for our technology needs. Please be on the lookout for this email later in the week. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
- There was a discussion about Open House. Alli would like to make this event as inviting, positive and worthwhile as possible for our school families. Some suggestions for improving open house included creating an event out of it (i.e. science classrooms doing labs for parents to try, etc), creating something separate for the freshmen, or holding open house before a football game to encourage school spirit and attendance. Alli will also be discussing this issue with the BLT. Please let her know if you have any thoughts about this topic.
- Department chair meetings will be held every Tuesday. The agenda is very flexible and open, so please let me know if you have any questions or concerns to bring to this group.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Have a great day! :-)
