Just a reminder...
Dodd has a culture in which communicating concerns has been encouraged. Though we want you to be honest and we want you to voice real concerns that you have regarding our district, campus and students, please remember that we need to be mindful of what, how, and to whom we are speaking.
- Keep it professional. It's not a time to gripe.
- Keep it tactful. Let's not place blame on others who are not there to defend themselves, especially if you are not 100% sure.
- Provide suggestions or solutions, if appropriate.
- Remember that you represent Dodd and all of our teachers. What you say will be addressed at central office, and we want to make sure that we are represented well.
edCamp Dallas is next weekend!
Here's more info: http://edcampdallas.wikispaces.com/
It can count toward your 12 hours needed by MLK, Jr. Day!
Have questions? Ask away. This will be my 5<x<10th edCamp to attend/co-organize. I always gain more knowledge from these events than a typical conference. Everything you discuss is applicable to you, and if it's not, leave the room to find your people.
Thank you so much!
:)
