Download a Word Doc or PDF version of the of the October Heartland Administrators Association meeting agenda. The meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 5 at the West Des Moines Learning Resource Center from 9:00-11:50 a.m.
We are trying something new this year with our HAA meetings. The first hour of each meeting (from 9:00-10:00) will be devoted to professional learning. We are calling it, “Superintendent Academy”. The theme for this year is Linking Leadership to Student Achievement.
At our first session we introduced the research findings from the Learning Project: Investigating Links to Improved Student Learning. The executive summary for this study can be downloaded here. More information and resources about the study can be found here.
At the upcoming session next week, we will be exploring one of the major concepts of the study. Engagement of stakeholders is a key leadership activity linked to student achievement. We will be investigating ways that Google Apps can be used to collaborate and gather input from a wide variety of stakeholders. We will also be reviewing an article from District Administration (available here) during the session. Please bring a laptop to the meeting if you have one available. If not, we will have laptops available for use.
A Google Site has been developed to make all of the materials and resources from this professional learning very accessible to participants. Please visit https://sites.google.com/site/superintendentacademy/.
