Saturday Oct. 24

I thought the work we did today with the recruitment and hiring process was excellent. All of the topics discussed will be quite valuable in the future.

The Top-Notch article was interesting. I find myself in agreement with what the studies appear to show. When quality teachers enter the building or even different wings of the building the productivity level seems to increase. I have noticed this in our professional development this year as teachers become better at the work we are doing everyone else on the team seems to want to become better. I am also intrigued by the hints about the small impact that structured mentor programs have. I would like to see the research on this topic.
