School Culture and Climate
This weekend I got a double dose of school climate and culture. It began with the climate survey which I thought was a great tool for beginning conversations about different aspects of school climate. Then I was able to hear a presentation about school culture where similar surveys were used to identify 3 areas of strengths and 3 areas for improvement. One aspect of the climate survey I found especially interesting was who was given the climate survey. The presenter recommended giving the survey to not only teachers, but also janitors, secretaries, and other non certified personnel. Another great suggestion I picked up was to invite people not familiar with the school or district to report on aspects of school climate.
