Schedule for April 25

Here is the schedule for April 25:

Morning
7:30-7:55 Everyone except elementary principals, reading coaches, librarians, and kindergarten teachers—Sign-in at Talladega High School. The program will be a state-required, three-hour in-service on nutrition. (Not my idea, not Joni’s idea, so just remember the old adage about not shooting the messenger.) The speaker will begin promptly at 8:00, so everyone must be signed in ahead of time.

7:30-7:55 Elementary Principals, Reading Coaches, and Kindergarten Teachers—Sign-in at R.L. Young. The program consist of training on StoryTown. We have been able to secure three consultants for the day to deliver training targeted for your particular position. The training will begin promptly at 8:00. Principals and Reading Coaches will be in the auditorium. Kindergarten teachers will bei the library.

11:00-12:30 Lunch on your own

Afternoon
12:30-3:30 Grades 1-6 Teachers, Elementary Principals, Reading Coaches, Elementary Counselors, and Elementary Special Education Teachers—Training on StoryTown. The training will be at R.L. Young. First grade will be in the auditorium. Grades 2 and 3 will be in the library. Grade 4-6 will be in the lunchroom. Principals, reading coaches, counselors, and special education may split up among the three groups.

12:30-3:30 Kindergarten Teachers —Nutrition training. The program from the morning will be videotaped, and you will be able to view it. The training will be in the library at Salter.

12:30-3:30 Elementary PE Teachers—There will be a special session for you. The training will be held in Coach Darby's room at Salter. Sheila Jett, a physical education teacher from Montevallo Middle School, will conduct the professional development. Ms. Jett has 11 years experience at the elementary level and 12 at the middle school level. She comes to us highly recommended.

12:30-3:00 Secondary Teachers—The afternoon session will be at your school. Your principal will provide details.

We will schedule a time for principals, reading coaches, and librarians to view the nutrition video at a later date.

PDWeb—I have registered everyone for the morning sessions. I have also registered everyone except Ellis and THS for the afternoon sessions. All that you will have to do is sign the sign-in sheet and take the online survey afterwards. If for some reason you do not find your name on the appropriate roster, you may simply sign at the bottom.
