LEC Teamsters, thanks so much for hopping on the call tonight. To wrap it up, I wanted to send a quick summary out to everyone:
  • Current Glows:
    • Personal connections with corps members/mentor role
    • The (few) corps members who have attended events have found them helpful
  • Grows:
    • Low corps member attendance is decreasing CL motivation/investment to organize great workshops
  • New Information:
    • Beginning immediately, mini-slips highlighting upcoming LEC PD events will be sent to PD's to distribute in person to LEC corps members
    • SPRING RESTRUCTURING: the LEC Team will host 3 mini-conference-style workshops (1 focus workshop, 1 content specific session then informal collaboration/planning time) in the spring.
      • The LEC team will work more cohesively to plan LEC PD.
      • Less events --> higher CM attendance and more efficient planning for LEC Team Leaders
        • Please send any additional thoughts, opinions, etc for spring to Ashley ASAP!
  • Upcoming LEC Events:
    • Thursday October 21st ECE Content Meeting (SF & South Bay)
    • Sunday October 24th: 1st grade Content Meeting (San Jose)
    • Saturday November 6th: Kinder DRA training 12:30-2:00/LEC Guided Reading Workshop 2-3:30 PM (TFA office) (*I unfortunately will be unable to attend this PD as I am the point person for coordinating volunteers for the Edgewood Hope Chairty Ball on November 6th)
    • TBA: Weeknight Kindergarten Content Meeting
      • Please send the remaining location and time details to Ashley ASAP.
  • LEC Content Leader Professional Development: Look out for the survey coming your way THIS week! :)
Thank you for being so committed and flexible to/with your role. You all are doing a FANTASTIC job! As always, let me know any way I can help and/or support you and your corps members. Have a great week!

Ashley, thank you for this concise summary. Rob, Jess, and I are in conversation about getting together soon with you and Jess. I know we’re still navigating to figure out the most effective ways for us to collaborate with you and mutually support one another’s efforts. I’m thrilled that the PD your team has provided so far has been high quality for those who attended, and I’m eager to a) deepen our shared understanding of purpose and b) increase attendance! J
