Example: My program is supposed to make disciplinary decisions based on behavior; but every administrator is hands off, which means it all falls on me. When I asked for assistance or guidance, I got nothing.

No support regarding curriculum 
Expectations not being enforced 
Lack of communication 
Lack of feedback ]]> 2022-10-08 14:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331941748 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331944191 My stress comes from not having enough time to write my IEPs because general education teachers don't get back to me with their updates in time or respond about being a representative at the meeting. We've made it clear that we have a deadline and we legally have to have the draft sent out by a certain date as well as the invite. They just don't seem to see the urgency in it. We've had administrators talk to department heads and tell them that this is important that they respond and yet we still don't see a change. It doesn't fit with their curriculum or their plans in their days so they just ignore and delete the emails and I'm left with inaccurate or no data for my students/no representative/a representative that doesn't teach that specific student.]]> 2022-10-08 14:29:24 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331944191 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331944297 A lot of stress falls upon me when there are certain expectations and then they are not followed through. 

A lot falls on us teachers and those who really put their all don't get recognized and appreciated much because we know how to do things and are doing a good job at it. 

Sometimes the administration tells us to do last minute things that they claim they also just found out about. ]]> 2022-10-08 14:29:34 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331944297 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331944492 Having more time to do things. Such as giving time to SPED teacher to work on IEP's.

Having clear expectations for teachers and especially SPED teachers. At times I am told to do certain things and I find out later that was the Social Workers job, which is always stressful.

My AP has these expectations  but does not explain her expectations until after the fact. Instead of focusing on bigger problems (student behavior and how it is impacting our classroom environment...she wants to lecture us about how our IEP goals aren't "good enough") 

 Lack of communication ( does not respond to emails or texts in a timely manner)

When there are issues or concerns it is basically is on the teachers to figure out solution. Little feedback. Support is almost non existent. Seems like teachers are solving more problems than our admin. ]]> 2022-10-08 14:32:00 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331945669 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331945798 I get stressed when I do not have clear expectations, feedback from admin, no guidance when it comes to curriculum and school-wide expectations are not being enforced...so it feels like all of the work I put into routines are wasted if it's not reinforced by all staff. Lack of behavior support is another huge issue in my class.

Students need structure and a daily routine. A daily routine allows for fewer disruptions and a smooth transition between activities. Lack of a routine breaks the flow of the day and leads to more confusion. Admin at my school keeps changing our schedule, which breaks our daily routines. This has happened about 5-6 times this year. ]]> 2022-10-08 14:33:38 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331946593 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331946641 The multiple roles and responsibilities that are placed on teachers outside of teaching, grading, classroom management. I also feel that being micromanaged by different administrators , which leads to unclear expectations given to teachers. Also there is not enough time in the day do everything. I also feel that admin emphasizes test scores as one their highest priorities.

I feel that this year's admin is better than last year's admin to be fair. ]]> 2022-10-08 14:33:43 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331946641 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331948414 IEP help. General ed teachers don't respond to emails about being a representative or giving updates about the student. They don't realize we have deadlines we legally have to meet and I think they actually just ignore and delete the email when it comes through. So now, I'm left with either a rep that doesn't teach the student, no representative at all or a late invite, or inaccurate or no data about the student. So frustrating.]]> 2022-10-08 14:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331948414 https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331948910 2022-10-08 14:37:23 UTC https://padlet.com/colrea/9yn6xtassiqz/wish/2331948910
