We have engaged in a process known as TeamWorks, Inc. in District 742. This has helped us to grow as leaders in this district. Now, I have scheduled my Superintendents’ Cabinet Members and Activities Directors to continue to learn more about the effective ways to bring this process to our teachers and coaches so that they fully understand the impact of a comprehensive educational leadership system. The next meetings will be:
Monday, April 27th – 8:00 a.m. – Noon – Topic: The development of a Scorecard #1
Thursday, April 30th – 8:00 a.m. – Noon – Topic: Scorecard #2
I will also be bringing the TeamWorks process to the teachers and other staff next year by beginning the year with this being presented at a Back-to-School Welcome/Workshop on Wednesday, September 2nd. All staff are invited, and this will allow for an overview presentation of TeamWorks (what’s been done in the District to date) at the Civic Center for the September 2nd morning.
Then, we will spend a couple of days in the buildings (later in the year) working with staff to further their understanding of this trust building, educational leadership system process. It is very useful to get the teachers and other staff engaged in partnering with the administration in moving forward with the strategic directions of the district that are the result of working with TeamWorks. More sessions are planned for staff development time on November 9th & January 25th.
I assure you that this will be motivating and uplifting for all staff.
