Happy to participate and have a voice in PL.  Would like to have a break from leading from time to time so that I can also pursue other topics of interest.

In its current structure, I don't think that these meetings need to occur on a weekly basis. I think debriefing is critical for adjusting our path as needed. It would be nice to have more time to plan with our team

Weekly meetings have been helpful in keeping momentum, but it has also been difficult in meeting my other responsibilities, especially during short weeks or testing season.

I am not sure that I want to participate next year. As a newer teacher, I would like to put more focus into bettering myself for my classroom. It is certainly something that I have been pondering about since in many ways I do not always feel ready for this role.

I think the weekly meetings give us a lot of momentum to do the work and to continue to meet the needs of the staff and of this group.  I do think that at the beginning of the year it may have felt like a big adjustment for participants because that is when we have a lot of demands on our schedule/commitments that seem to sneak up on us.  I also think it is important to give the gift of time when we can, and cancelling meetings that we do not need is always appreciated.

It has been helpful to me as a teacher to participate in a small group to learn names of staff and get to know them better. The extra responsibilities regarding planning and preparing the PL are challenging to balance with the other lead responsibilities.

I like the purpose of this group. I don't know that it has to be solely lead teachers. There are (or have been in the past) many colleagues that have knowledge and expertise that might be interested in leading a professional development that they are passionate about.

It's sustainable, but maybe next year we can choose some different topics for the PL sessions. It feels move valuable when we learn from people we know in the building. It also seems to help us build our community as we get to know people we may not have gotten to know otherwise.

If the need is such that we need to meet weekly then like this structure - fine with group check in and then break out.  Keeps me honest with the time commitment.

I think the meetings are helpful but it might benefit the members of the group to hold meetings twice a month or once a month. I do think the dedicated time to planning our professional development sessions has been the most helpful.

I really enjoy being part of a group where I can collaborate with different people and have a voice in what is happening at our school, but I feel like I am not the best person to be facilitating trainings in areas beyond my scope

I think they are meaningful.  The use of agenda keeps us on track and focuses us on the tasks at hand while also allowing us to bring up new issues/add to the parking lot if we have a burning need/issue. It would also be helpful if people were on time so that our roles such as timekeeper and note-taker could be rotated equitably.

Am used to being more of an "expert" when leading PD - possibly having participated in a train the trainer session.   So at times feel unknowledgeable as the leader of the PD.
