| 1. | 3/19/2008 7:20:00 PM | Glad you recognized this need |
| 2. | 4/7/2008 9:44:00 PM | Isn't this kind of a given? |
| 3. | 4/7/2008 9:22:00 PM | 20 years of management including hiring and firing has proven to me that you can help a good person get better, but you can not make a bad person good. Must be willing to pay to get the best however. |
| 4. | 4/8/2008 1:03:00 PM | If the obvious needs to be stated then of course do so :) |
| 5. | 4/8/2008 12:10:00 PM | I believe this is something that should be implied and therefore should not be considered a district objective. |
| 6. | 4/8/2008 3:03:00 PM | We were not given the opportunity to evaluate our administrators last year. If we are not looking at our present administration and whether they are doing a good job, how will we know what good looks like for future hiring?
A little sarcasm there. I am evaluated and I appreciate knowing what I do well and where I have room for growth. Is the administration on the same wave length? |
| 7. | 4/8/2008 5:08:00 PM | this should always be a high priority! |
| 8. | 4/8/2008 5:41:00 PM | These are givens |
| 9. | 4/8/2008 5:18:00 PM | I think that this is important, however we are already doing this - right? By writing it as a goal it is indirectly stated that it is something we need to work on or improve. |
| 10. | 4/9/2008 4:10:00 PM | Do we really recruit or do we put the information out on the appropriate websites and then select from the candidates that applied? |
| 11. | 4/8/2008 4:59:00 PM | Implied |
| 12. | 4/8/2008 10:05:00 PM | If we're not going to spend the time and money to "recruit" teachers (see comment for #8) then we don't need to spend time and money to recruit administrators. |
| 13. | 4/9/2008 5:14:00 PM | A top goal. There are many factors invovled in getting administrators to work here. Working environment, comunity support, school quality, and most importantly $$. Are we going to back this up with the dollars necessary to make it happen? |
| 14. | 4/10/2008 1:16:00 PM | I don't know that this ever needs to be stated by a district as a goal. Just food for thought: if you need to clarify that we are working to recruit and retain quality teachers and administrators, doesn't that suggest the previously you did not hire and retain quality teachers and administrators. I think these two goals should be unwritten methods of conducting business always in any school district. If they are not already, then maybe they have a place on this list, but there has got to be some negative PR in putting these two objectives on the list. |
| 15. | 4/10/2008 4:36:00 PM | We have excellent administrators at the high school - let's keep it that way! |
| 16. | 4/10/2008 6:13:00 PM | I am in the camp that this should be a given, not a goal. |
