Like many people, I want to be in control, but far too often I find myself in a situation I can control. The only thing I can control is how I respond to a given situation or problem that I face. With that said, I am a fan of Action Research Designs as it provides a simple model to address issues directly one might encounter in their professional life. In other words, there is no reason to complain about this and that but instead, find a solution to the problem. Here are three problems my school currently faces:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Attendance \u2013 Student social-emotional learning and academic growth are negatively affected by absenteeism. If students are not absent, then they are usually late. Currently, our school does not have attendance or late policy.<\/li>\n
  2. School community \u2013 The lack of school community and positive school culture plays a part in student achievement, demotivates staff who already live in difficult circumstances in an isolated community. A healthy school community will promote parent engagement and community partnerships, character development, safe and healthy schools, and provide an opportunity to hear our students\u2019 voices.<\/li>\n
  3. Parent engagement \u2013 parents and guardians, are the most important teachers to their children. As a school, we have failed to engage and included parents in their children’s\u2019 education effectively. Parents play a vital role in their child\u2019s education. When parents, teachers, and students come together in a shared vision, everyone will benefit including students, parents, teachers and community members.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I believe all three problems are deeply connected and if you solve one, the other will also improve. Unfortunately, it is easier said than done, but I look forward to the challenge ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
