E-mail from a teacher. I am so glad to be away from this nonsense/
The APs and Principal walked around on Thursday during the snow storm to see who
was teaching. Rumor is from now on teachers will formally be observed since
they are entitled to at least 6 pop ins as part of the new evaluation system.
Then you ask why I am going. It pays to fight the snow, parking and then be
harrassed. Also I wonder if a teacher has a coverage if that teacher can be
observed, probably.

Instruction on a snow day
28Q505 | 2/13/2014
1:08:53 PM
On a snow stricken day with a little over 800 students in the building,
what should be happening in the classroom? Choose the best possible
answer.
_____ a. One on one time can be utilized with students that are still
struggling with skill deficits.
_____ b. Combining classes to promote data-driven tutoring across
disciplines so that students can take advantage of the brain bank of one
room.
_____ c. "Office Hours" type discussions with students about their
goals, College aspirations, scholarship writing and or vocabulary words and key
concepts found in exams like the S.A.T and A.C.T
_____ d. All of the above
Thank you for your efforts in making sure that whether there are two
students or 34 students that instruction is still being capitalized.
Respectfully submitted,
Instructional Core Team

This response seems to be more humble and with regret rather than arrogance. I admire a chancellor who wrongfully admits when they make mistakes and want to take back what they said.
