As this school has become an AVID Demonstration school, it's shared decision making meetings are called site team meetings. In attendance are the school principle, the core academic department heads (math,science,social studies, and language arts), elective teachers for band, choir,art, physical education, and AVID coordinator for the school. There is also one parent present as it is taking place very early in the morning. The main topic being discussed is how to best offer support to AVID students in an effort to help them to continue success.
The one thing that really has my attention is how open everyone feels in respect to sharing his or her opinion.There was some kind of scheduling issue that was predominantly affecting the elective teachers, but with the principle present and after a discussion on what direction would be best in solving it, it was able to be resolved right then and there.
