Staff Expectations

In order for the Seminar program to be successful, it will require staff to be intentional about their Seminar offerings and use this time purposefully to support/enrich students' learning. Therefore, we have created staff expectations and structures to support the program.

Staff Expectations:

• All teachers (except shared teachers) will provide seminar sessions and assist with larger sessions such as the reading and homework rooms.

• Teachers will take attendance at the start of Seminar.

• Teachers will have their Seminar sessions for the following week entered into Adaptive Scheduler no later than 7:00 a.m. every Monday.

• Teachers will make their student selections for their sessions by Monday at 7:00 a.m. 

• Teachers will prioritize Seminar for students who need intervention/support. Teachers will utilize DLC meetings to determine interventions needed and identify students for support. 

• If teachers have students with grades below 70%, the teachers should select them for intervention.

• Administration will monitor the Seminar program and provide opportunities for student, parent, and staff feedback. 

• Only academic activities may take place during Seminar.
