It's a new year! Some people greet the new year with disdain when contemplating goals, or thinking of a resolution, or they embrace it with enthusiasm, and a renewed sense of purpose. A New Year is an exciting time to plan ahead, dream big, and reach for the stars. Amid all the fireworks, and corks popping, one thing remains the same at Linn-Mar: Our Teacher Leaders are committed to the Goals of the plan that we have been fervently implementing.
At Linn-Mar our Teacher Leadership Goals remain the same:
- Capitalize on excellent teacher resources in the District
- Cultivate and train teachers in the leadership program
- Infuse best practices and cutting edge learning into the schools via Instructional Coaches and other classroom leaders
- Institute an adult learning model
- Improve day-to-day delivery of instruction
- Make adequate yearly growth in all buildings as outlined in the CSIP Plan in the areas of reading, mathematics, science, technology, and safe schools
- Improve student performance and achievement
Make no mistake, winter break was a gift. Starting fresh is a good thing, and we are ready.
We are rested. We are refreshed. We are inspired. We are well-read, and have reflected on the first six months of our program. We are back in the trenches and sharing best practices with our teachers and staff. So, while you are making your New Year's goals, you can rest easy knowing that Linn-Mar Teachers and Staff are working just as hard as ever in our schools.
Happy New Year and Happy Learning!
