Principals' Meeting

Greetings!
Today was a busy day for me. I picked up reports at ITS, and then went to a principals' meeting at Miami Lakes Tech.

The meeting was packed with information, and none of it really pertains to our center, for example, we don't have the SAVES program, we don't have Vocational programs, and we don't have Trade Advisory Councils.

So, what do we have? We have new part time teachers to adult education. All teachers who are new to teaching in the adult ed program need to attend the ELITE New Teacher Orientation. We have a list, we know who you are and will contact you for the training.

The CASAS test will be done on the computer once everything is set up. This will be a big help to everyone.

Non-instructional personnel may not exceed the 12.5 hours a week limit. Any exceptions to this mandate requires a waiver from the Region and District.

Our master schedule will roll over next week. Our Registrar needs to know the tentative classes for the April trimester.

And, we said goodbye to Dr. Hoffman. She received a beautiful arrangement of roses and a gift certificate from all of the principals.

Discipline has been an issue in the last few days, please tighten up with the rules.

All in all it was a good day. I love my job and I love what I do, and I do what I love.

That's all for tonight - until tomorrow.
