Ahhh...it's finally summer! :-) This past quarter drug on, but we're finally officially done!!! Yesterday was the last day for students, and today was our last day. I'll be going in for some planning meetings during the next couple of weeks, but nothing is on a time crunch. I love this! :-)
Let me tell you about my upcoming meetings. Due to the cutbacks in our district, our assitant principal will be taking the position that was open due to a retirement, and the district is not going to be filling her current position. So...I have been asked to take on some of her responsibilities and have agreed to do so. For next school year, I will be chairing our IAT Team (Intervention Assistance Team - we try to help students who are struggling...either academically or behaviorally). I have been a member of this team for several years (the past 4 or 5) so I'll have some understanding of what I'm doing, but it will definitely be an added load. However the principal is working on some flexible scheduling ideas to help give me time during the normal work day to do some of this.
In addition to chairing the IAT Team, I also applied & was given the Teacher in Charge position. This basically means that I will be taking care of any discipline issues that arise when the principal is out of the building. On the days she is out, there will be a sub in my room so I can be available in the office when needed. I thought this (as well as my experience with IAT) would be great opportunities for me - especially since I have my master's degree in Administration and plan on getting my administrative license at some point. It'll also look good on a resume.
