Post: One of the single most frustrating things a principal did
Posted by Donna music/TN on 3/25/08
Was to put my lunch at 1:00, after everyone else had
already had theirs. Since specialists were the ones who
provided planning, no one had planning then, either. So,
while music, art, PE, and library could eat and collaborate
together, that was it. What it meant was that, for the last two years I taught in
that school, I never had any downtime with grade level
teachers. It was either that we taught in our separate
rooms, seeing each other only when they dropped off or
picked up their kids, or we were at a meeting or workshop. The schedule I liked the best, even though it was a little
annoying, was one where my lunch period moved, so I had 1-2
days a week with each grade level cluster, because then I
DID feel like I knew everyone, and could talk to them more
easily.
