Sunday Post
I really liked the discussion on on professional development within schools. In every situation I have been in during my educational career I have not had one meaningful p.d experience. I like the fact that other people are having similar experiences, because I was hoping that it is not just the case with me. But, it truly is sad that so many people have very worthless experiences. I like the idea of having people who take in part in p.d. experiences come back to school and report what they had found out or heard. I also like the idea of having the teachers decide what type of professional development they need. It is important for us as new administrators to understand just how important meaningful professional development is and will be.
