Site Supervisor Conference
My conference took place at Central Office with Dr. Tim Miller, Superintendent of Cleburne Independent Schools on June 22, 2011 at 4:00pm. Dr. Miller and I reviewed all necessary paperwork, including the internship plan, skills and knowledge area chart and textbook, as requested for the assignment. We discussed the intern plan that I had submitted to him earlier. He thought it was very through and believed it covered the necessary requirements for the course. We discussed that I believe my area of need is budget and finance. He understood my concern and we discussed that area. I included several additional activities in this area and look forward to learning and growing there. We also discussed the possibility of a project at a later date. I wanted to see where some areas of need might arise in this difficult financial year. Then, together, we could analyze what might be a project that could help my campus as well as the district. Our discussion was very beneficial and we are both looking forward to working together in this learning/teaching capacity. As we discussed the format in the textbook and he studies the examples, he felt my plan was well organized and that was no need for changes or revisions to my intern plan.
Sounds like your conference went well. As an AP I have limited experience with school budget and finance, and this is an area I need growth in. As we complete our reflections on the activities, I will look to read yours about budget and finance. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteBudget is a huge subject. I also have it as a need the major question I really want to learn more about is the long range planning a district can do to ensure a balanced budget or even a budget that can build fund balance. Impossible? I don't know but I want to learn. I am with Wes, I will be looking here for some insight on this subject.
