Building leadership teams need to meet consistently and regularly. They should not be hand-picked by administrators. This discredits the team by giving the appearance of favoritism and yes-ma'am behavior. Administration leadership approves resources and allows teachers to attend conferences and pays for their tuition. Even though there has been some turnover in leadership with principals, we do not feel it has affected the teachers.
Teachers meet weekly and as often as necessary with leadership.
There is no gifted and talented program and there should be. I disagree in concept and practice with the Math lab. District provides great education for the students. Last year's graduates received hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships to colleges and universities across the state and nation. The district uses a math program that is consistent that takes the students from Kindergarten through calculus.
