TAC Update

 Today the Teacher Advisory Council met for their monthly meeting. The following were topics discussed:
-The process of brainstorming and sharing questions on the one to one student technology initiative. Many advisory groups are meeting over the course of this month and next to collect questions, ideas and concerns regarding the roll out of the one to one process. The advisory feedback will be shared with the one to one staff advisory group coming up in January.
- An update was shared with the council on the process of teacher laptops. The district is looking into the replacement process of teacher laptops. The goal is to be able to share and distribute new teacher laptops later this Spring and Summer.
-The ELA Review process shared an update on their work for the council. The ELA team will have all continuum maps or units of study drafted for final reading by the end of January. The ELA Review Team will then begin to look for tools and resources to use while instructing with the new maps next year.
-Feedback from the Learning Forward Conference was shared. The idea of Pop Up PD was shared.
-The team discussed other ways to get PD experience for staff when they are most pertinent to the teacher.

 At our next meeting we will discuss the following: Math Continuum Pilot, Open House Feedback, and Collaborative Inquiry process. Please know we are looking for feedback from any staff on these topics, please feel free to come to TAC on January 28th as a guest to share your feedback.
