Personalized Professional Learning Survey
A goal we have at AISC is to be a progressive school that has
clear alignment around our teaching and learning priorities. We are also
committed to providing our faculty with rich professional learning experiences.
To help us plan for a more personalized approach to professional learning in
the 2016-17 school year, we ask that you set aside approximately 5-10 minutes
to complete this comprehensive survey.
The results of this survey will guide us as we develop a dynamic and personalized
professional learning program for next year, which will begin with the All
Faculty Orientation and extend throughout the school year. Given the importance
of this information in our planning for next year, we have added the completion
of the survey to the end of year checkout process. Please have this survey completed by May 20, 2016.
Preparing your Classrooms for the End of the Year
It is hard to believe
that there are only 3 ½ weeks left of this school year! As you start to look toward that end mark,
you are most likely thinking about preparing your classroom for next year (or
for some of us, our departure). Over the
past few years we have opened up the SHED for teachers to discard gently used
(but still useable) materials that are no longer needed for instruction
specific to their grade level or content. The reality, however, is that the
SHED actually became a dump and unintentionally promoted a wasteful approach to
the cleaning process. Therefore, the SHED "give away" will not occur in the same form as it has in previous years. Instead,
I have created a Google Doc where teachers can post photos and descriptions of
useable instructional materials that they can no longer use in their specific
units. If you are interested in a posted
item, you will sign-up for it and then work directly with the teacher to
collect the useable materials and resources.
Balajee is currently surveying our local school connections to see what
resources and materials they would like to receive. He will organize a few donation bins with
details of items that will be accepted for donation. Look for more details from Balajee in the
upcoming weeks.
