Structure of MeetingJennifer Valdez and Kevon Wells
Structure and Times
• Half of the principal meetings this year will be attached to DLT Meetings. So only every other month will there be a stand-alone principal meeting. This is being done to decrease time away from campuses.
• All meetings will end no later than 4:00 p.m. So it is best to plan on being out the entire day.
2013-2014 Principal Meetings
• Meetings attached to DLT meetings will be held in the AHS LGI room. Stand-alone meetings will be held on various campuses – see schedule.
• Lunch will be provided half of the time that the meetings are attached to DLT meetings. When lunch is not provided, we will break for one hour. It is critical that everyone is back on time so that the meeting can resume and we can finish in a timely manner. For stand-alone principal meetings one hour and 15 minutes will be given for lunch if we see that we cannot finish the meeting before lunch.
