FIRST MDE BOARD MEETING

 

Today I went to my first Michigan Department of Education Board Meeting.  What an honor to be among only a handful of teachers across the nation who sit on their state board!  I commend Michigan for having a teacher representative on theirs.  Each month I prepare a report that I submit and speak on about things happening in my district, school, and classroom, as well as what I have been doing as Michigan Teacher of the Year.  I also get to talk about issues happening around the state as well.  It was great to see how everyone on the Board worked together to find the best possible solutions for Michigan’s educational system as we move forward and the well thought out and structured conversations that took place.  The Board is a great group of people who made me feel very welcome.  I look forward to my next meeting and learning more about the “inner workings” of our educational system as well as continuing to be a voice for teachers.
