Starting Professional Learning Communities this school year will be a process, not an initiative. Each team will be its own team and will develop its own identity over time.
Our team leaders met this morning to discuss how the PLC meetings went on Aug. 25. Most leaders gave positive reports but not all. I really do not think it is realistic for all teams to be up and running smoothly yet. The teams have only met twice, and although the members may know each other, they may not know each other that well yet. Teams will need time to develop a trust factor with each other in order to feel comfortable and to be able to truly collaborate. That is really what PLCs are all about; it is a process of collaboration.
The Team Leaders:
Abby Ubben Natalie Burroughs Brian Weig
Mindy Jensen Tammy Keigan Julie Gray
Lora Aikin Stephen Adams Paul deNeui
