Too many meetings during planning

# data[].attributes.body
Time to do long term planning across my courses. Time to explore resources. Time to try out the resources. Time to participate in my own professional development.

Kids skipping classes
Parents not answering phone calls

Lack of attendance

# data[].attributes.body
My classes are lumped together. I have my first year class, but my 2nd and 3rd are in the same block. It’s difficult to teach what I need to when they’re together.

Discipline- I had three kids in one day
(Thursday) that cussed me out and walked out of the classroom; and even though I wrote them up and made phone calls home there was no visible action taken for these kids to have accountability.

Not having adequate time for planning or grading because of being pulled to cover other duties.

Paperwork, too many meetings during preplanning get in the way of getting work done to start the school year.

Participate in professional learning that does not pertain to my content.
Having someone at the school level treat CTAE like all academic departments

# data[].attributes.body
Paperwork, meetings that take our planning time, having too many initiatives (meaning there are so many mandated tasks that I feel like I am not doing any of them well),  poor communication, unrealistic expectations for CTAE (at the school level-being expected to do everything academic teachers do in addition to CTAE/CTSO/ POW/ Industry Certification requirements).

A feeling of tension in administration because of organizational changes within the district has trickled down and negatively impacted faculty.

# data[].attributes.body
The lack of resource as far as student work goes in connectivity to what’s being studied.
Also a lack of training before taking over the course. I’m learning as I go as well.

- Students' unexcused absences.
- Parents uninvolved/absent.
- Leniency on students with behavior issues and lack of work ethic.

I found that most of my students who were skipping were football players, so I went to practice and reclaimed my time and then they started to come to class.

The bridge for too many meetings, is to only do meetings that are necessary.  Instead of doing meetings to check a box and say we did a meeting.

What is going well is my students are surprisingly well behaved this year, for the most part. I was expecting a lot of discipline issues after being virtual for a year and a half and it isn't as bad as I expected.
