To further the issues that I was trying to help conquer before the end of the year, the
email that our assistant principal sent to our academy to let everyone know about the
meeting included why we were having the meeting. This type of information does not
come across well in an email, so many of the faculty already had an extremely negative
attitude leading up to the session. When I began to hear around the lunch table peoples
attitudes, I immediately went to my assistant principal with my concerns that this session
will not be productive but a complaint fest.
c. Given the chance to do it again, how would you do it better?
I have been given the chance to do this again because it has been rescheduled for either
our summer session or first of the year. The end of the year when emotions are high and
teachers are tired, it is not the best time to begin what seems like a process of pointing out
what went wrong and faults- in a sense. I learned that my mentality is to take on an issue
head on, hash it out, and move forward; however, just because that is what would work
for me personally is not what is most effective for a team. I am learning more and more
that my way is not be right or best way; it does not mean I am wrong, but I have to look
at the bigger picture.
***Side note- the team building activity for after school was a HUGE success! We went
to Escape Chattanooga and had to work as a team, and it was such a positive way to
end the year- laughing together!!!
