Hi Everyone,
I hope the Thanksgiving break treated everyone well. I am looking forward to getting together this spring. The 3rd and 10th work best for us at Tampa Prep. The 17th is the least desirable date (long weekend with no school on the 17th). Thanks for organizing this Andrew and Chris.
Best regards,
Carl

Thanks Andrew and Chris for organizing this.
April 3 could be tough as that is Good Friday and Passover (double-whammy!)
April 10 and 17 would be best for us.

Unfortunately I will be unable to attend the Spring Retreat this year due to previous commitments.  I hope I will be able to join you in the fall.

Dear Fellow Administrators,

Thank you for your responses to the spring retreat. So far we only have four responses, Carl, Andrew, Tom and Scottie. Is anyone else interested? I am thinking that we could maybe still meet up for lunch at the Carrollwood County Club. They will probably give us an area where we can talk as well. 

What are your thoughts?

Chris,

I had written last month, saying I was interested in attending. A lunchtime meeting would definitely work for me.

I have been trying to work my schedule to allow me to attend.  Unfortunately, I have too much on my plate right now.  Please accept my apologies but I will make every effort to attend next year's meetings.

Best wishes to all.

Hi Tom,

Good to see you the other week. Thank you for coming. I hope the end of the school year is going well for you. 

I wanted to follow up about the SAIC accreditation you mentioned. Who was the contact you had with them?

Thanks,

Chris

Dear Fellow Administrators,

I have a couple of questions for you.
1. What structures do you have in place for after school supervision? Specifically students who are waiting for parents or sports practices and games.
2. Is there any interest in a spring get together? It would be good to catch up before the summer if we can.

Thanks,

Chris

In the upper school we have a free supervised study in the library until 6:00 P.M.  Students are not to wander campus unattended, so if they have nowhere to be, are waiting to be picked up, or for a practice to start, they report to the library for a quiet study environment.  In middle school we offer something similar but it is on a fee basis.  Upper School students tend to come irregularly, while middle school students are generally there every day, therefore the price differential.

We have library after school hours until 5:00 p.m. where students waiting on parents or practice may go to study.  Sometimes our coaches offer a study hall area in the classroom at the gym for student athletes waiting on practice or a game.  We also have a person on duty on the main campus area until 4:30 to monitor the outside basketball court area.  Students are generally restricted to these areas and the drop off/pick up area until parents arrive.

None of these options have fees associated with them.

Was there a decision on a spring gathering?

Everyone,


We are currently discussing how to work more effectively with junior teachers who receive a lot of recommendation requests.  So far, we have granted time off in the fall for teachers to work on them if they didn't complete them all in the summer.  We are now thinking about financial compensation of some sort, especially for those teachers that get hit the hardest.


Our teachers love to do it and write tremendous letters, but a few of the heaviest tasked have expressed how time consuming it is.


Any suggestions or current programs in place would be greatly appreciated.


Dennis
