As representative of Happy Valley School district-High School and K-8 Principles, the main issues for me to get across was my new approaches. Some of these in my opinion were hard to interject without appearing pushy and not wanting to waste anyone's time. I gave it my best effort to try some active listening, small confrontation, and suggesting we brainstorm or problem solve.
I find that in meetings it's easier to stay quite until you can find an opportunity to get your opinion in. Challenges arise with different personalites and roles. Scott lead most of the meeting, and it was a bit touchy as the agenda's were coming out at the last minute.
Finding common ground with all the other members and trying not to appear critical of the High School process that is obviously ridiclous to have the aides send out confidential information, was getting touchy for me. Bill believed that the aides were the best asset to this process, and me and Amy did not. Not sure why Bill pushed that issue with me, but one of the main things was getting the agenda straight, and discussing the agenda items.
It was interesting to feel the role of this school meeting and the issues that do come up in school envrionments, but a meeting is a meeting..ugh!
