Meetings

I had two completely different meetings today and avoided a third. It is also more fun to start in a random order, so the one I avoided was the Peer Learning Community (PLC) meeting. Since I am hourly, I do not have to go to meetings. If I do, I need to get paid for it, but that is not in the budget, so no meetings. Realistically it would probably be useful, but starting next week I will be tutoring during that time slot. There is a grant for that tutoring, so I will be paid for that.
The first meeting was with my Marylhurst University Supervisor, Bob Miller. I was able to introduce him to my cooperating teacher, and talk about what is going on. He will be observing me teach every now and again, starting next Monday. I need to send him my lesson plan ahead of time, and tell him what I want him to look for. The goal is for him to be useful for my teaching.
The third was with the Vice-Principal, a parent and another teacher. This was to touch base about a student who was forcibly moved to my class, and make sure he does not fall through the cracks. Straight forward and pleasant, and then I went home.
