  7. Summer Retreat 2007

  8. Remembrances What if among those 266 elementary participants there are 10 instructional leaders? These folks in an average Kentucky elementary school would impact over 500 students and at least 20 staff members. So these 10 principals would likely impact over 5,000 students and 100 teachers! Since principals don't hang around long in 5 years they might impact over 55,000 students. WOW... • Now back to our secondary friends. Since secondary folks teach at least 25 students in 6 classes a semester this amounts to around 300 students at year (in a traditional secondary model) or impacting over 79,800 students during the 07-08 school year! Now in ten years these 266 secondary participants might impact over 798,000 students. • Now being "math" disabled and not really liking grad school statistics this looks like a "BUNCH LOT OF POTENTIAL IMPACT" to me! • So that one drop, or that one request for an extension, or the email for make up time for a vacation activity, translates into impacting real live Kentucky students and possibly the future of our Commonwealth. • Are we about great things? I think so! • If we have 532 participants in our online courses and let's say for fun 50% are elementary and 50% are secondary. The 266 elementary teachers will have at least 25 students in their rooms next fall. So that means over 6,650 students could be directly influenced by the PD course that you are about to begin tomorrow. • Now stay with me.... What if these 266 participants teach an average of at least 10 more years? Now we have over 66,500 students being impacted by our work. • Our upcoming retreat has the theme of, Making a Difference. I'm thinking this may also need to be our theme for all of the 07-08 school year and maybe even beyond. • What an impressive yet daunting charge? But ponder briefly with me.
