Welcome to EDL 522. As part of the requirements for this course you will be required to post comments to this blog after every class session. These comments should be a reflection of the readings, lectures, guest speakers, activities, or discussions that occurred during the day. I hope you enjoy the class and I will do my best to share with you the theoretical and practical lessons that you will need to be a successful school administrator.

Saturday Nov. 13
One of the things that was really clear was that absolutely nothing is black and white! After looking through and discussing the policies, there is still so much room for decisions. What may work in one situation, may not in another, but then we could be told that we are unfair or playing favorites! The case studies were again a reminder that nothing is set in stone. I think we need to be careful not to judge how an administrator handles a situation since we rarely have all of the information that they had to make a decision with. We need to strive to always to the best we can with all of the information we have and not just take the easiest, shortest way out. It was also really interesting to hear how other schools policies are worded.
