Parent Meeting

The parent meeting took place on January 14, 2013 in the computer lab.  Twelve of my seventy-nine students had parents there to represent them - a little more than 15%.  Parents were given the opportunity learn from the counselor in charge or parental involvement, an assistant principal, and myself.  Items discussed include parent meetings on campus, Skyward parent access, communicating with teachers, and important dates in Pre-AP Language Arts to finish the year.  Monitoring will continue from here.

Research Update

My research is moving along smoothly.  I have completed the spreadsheets that contain the information on the students needed prior to beginning my research.  The same spreadsheet will be used later in order to compare my results after the research is completed.  The date for my initial parent meeting is set and the documents (invitation, informational sheet, Skyward access information, survey, etc.) for the meeting are just about completed.  I have solicited the help of the counselor in charge of parent contact and another colleague on campus has offered assistance for the meeting as well.  Let's hope the entire research process goes this well.
