    - Learning design team members will disseminate information regarding scheduling ideas for 16-17 to teams for feedback over the next two weeks.

- I would like to begin meeting with teams again in January, as all important information will be disseminated via email and conversation in the next two weeks.  Please let me know if you or your team has issues you would like to meet about and we can do so.  I want to be sure to catch up from last week to keep us on track, thank you!

-  My enrollment meeting with Dr. Riss has been rescheduled to 8am Thursday before DLT.  We will be discussing options for staffing with our increased numbers next year in 7th grade.  We anticipate approximately 50 more students than we have this year.

-  I will be doing another round of iobservation walkthroughs in the next two weeks

- Conferences: 16-17 update.  Our conferences are being changed on the district calendar to reflect 8 hours of extra work time for the 8 hour comp day.  The Tuesday will be 4-8, Wednesday 1-3:30, and Thursday 4-8, Friday comp.  We will be collecting data on how many families we can physically schedule to "see" during these times and look to continue discussion in the future to make conferences most effective. 

Good to Know
