Our Shadowing Experience by Christine Goffredo https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow Made with eyes on the prize en-us 2017-11-27 18:36:07 UTC 2020-10-28 16:17:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Templeball.png Ps312 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211370050 In my visit to PS312 in Brooklyn , Ny My colleague and I were welcomed warmly by administration. It set a very positive tone in the building. Majority of the day was spent with Mrs. D’Onofrio the assistant principal where we did an observation and debriefed afterward.We attended a meeting with the principal as well and saw a great dynamic among staff relationships. We learned that two of their focus points are visibility, being around staff and getting to know the students, and delivery, being cognizant of how you convey information in meetings such as your tone and body language.

The leadership was an incredible example of sharing a vision with staff and communicating with clarity ways to achieve that vision. This was a valuable experience and I had the opportunity to see the ways they work with teachers and students to achieve high expectations. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:27:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211371573 #CS4ALL - Brooklyn District office https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211371675 During my shadowing assignment with Aankit Patel (#CS4ALL Director) I learned that creating partnerships between companies and schools have many aspects needed to considered such as demographics, and needs of both parties. All correspondences need to be short and succinct. Surprisingly not all schools what to partner with companies for various reasons. I also sat at a Founders Meeting at 52 Chambers. The meeting's focus was creating buy-in, introducing concepts, engaging audience, and lasting impressions. Excellent experience.]]> 2017-11-29 13:28:08 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211371675 P.S. 6 Grades Pre-K - 5 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211371837 I was fortunate to shadow Dennis Forde at P.S. 6.  During my visit, I was able to participate in morning arrival, greet students, and become familiar with the varied arrival procedures. At P.S. 6 there is a 30% special education population.  I was brought into every classroom in the building and was able to see how they are meeting the needs of all learners.  I was able to sit in on two informal observations and discuss a glow and a grow for each teacher I visited with Mr. Forde.  I was also able to meet the principal Ms. Waters and discuss the Impact Teamwork the school is working on.  The greatest part of my visit, was witnessing the open communication and collaboration Mr. Forde and Ms. Waters had with each other.  It was truly an amazing experience.]]> 2017-11-29 13:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211371837 PS 312 Brooklyn https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211372081 Upon entering the building, my colleague and I were greeted with warmth, which seems to be the climate of the building.  It was immediately noted that the administration has a positive relationship with both the staff and students.  Presence and delivery were two of the qualities that were transparent throughout our visit shadowing both the Assistant Principal and Principal.  Staff and students are able to approach administration throughout the day for any concern.  An open door policy was evident. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211372081 Staten Island Tech https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211373137 All I can say is wow! What an experience. The principal sat down with us and spent the entire day with us explaining the ins and outs of the building, programs, staff, demographics and how they have changed, the overall vision, strengths and where they are looking to improve. I learned so much about leadership just based on observing his interactions and him allowing us to ask any questions. He was an open book and it was greatly appreciated. I would have loved to have been a student there!

I had an opportunity to sit through an observation and debrief with both AP's. We also were able to sit in on a grade meeting and observe during planning period. Afterwards, I was invited to sit in a Cabinet meeting to get a full picture of the glows and grows of the school. The Staff and Principal were very welcoming and gained a lot of knowledge from a JHS perspective. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:34:15 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374484 Unfortunately my first scheduled shadow was postponed due to the principal being called out of the building. I rescheduled for Thursday, Dec. 7th. My other two shadows are scheduled for this Friday, Dec. 1st, and Thursday, Dec. 14th. https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374548 2017-11-29 13:34:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374548 PS 16 jsolano4 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374667 During my visit to PS 16, I was able to observe morning arrival, debrief with the Assistant Principal observe multiple classrooms and the highlight was being able to observe a post-observation feedback session. What I admired most about my visit was the honesty and professionalism displayed by the administrative cabinet. I marveled at their collective positive mindset and clear vision for where they want to see their school go. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:34:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374667 Shadow Experience New Dorp High School 9-12 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374850 Approximately two weeks ago I shadowed the AP English at New Dorp High School. One thing that I learned was that an administrator has to be aware of any issues his or her  staff may have. The issues the administrator had to be aware of , and be ready to deal with, were both personal and work related issues. The experience definitely made for an interesting morning.]]> 2017-11-29 13:35:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211374850 IS 24 tmcghie https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375003 During my visit to 24 I was impressed with the trust and the way staff and leadership interacted. There was a true sense of accountability on both the staff and leadership account to improve instruction and to make sure that every student could achieve at their highest potential. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375003 Staten Island Tech https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375114 What an amazing experience! Being an elementary school teacher it was a whole new world in HS. The administration from top down was just amazing. They welcomed us and really made an effort to let us see the ins and outs of their building. The biggest thing I came away with is the importance of strong, and innovative leadership. Every building has there own issues and challenges, but strong leadership is strong leadership. Having the pulse of the building, understanding the needs of staff, support staff, and students was clearly evident. I admire the administrations ability to think forward, and look at each decision and how it affects all stakeholders. There was just so much I learned ,and would love to go back and learn more.]]> 2017-11-29 13:35:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375114 PS59 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375506 During my shadowing experience, I learned quickly that there is no such thing as a "typical" day if you are an assistant principal. There is a typical plan for the day that stays that same, but following that plan may not happen. 

An AP wears many hats. During my time shadowing, the AP was making phone-calls to parents, stopping a melt-down of a special needs child, dealing with busing, supervising lunch duty, and frequently communicating with the principal and just about everyone else in the school community. She didn't miss a beat, and did this all with a smile as the paperwork piled up on her desk (safety team messages, OORs reports to be entered, observations that had to be rescheduled, etc.). The main focus was always doing what was best for kids. :)]]> 2017-11-29 13:36:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375506 PS26/ Eagle Academy for Young Men https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375899 I spent the day at PS 26 with Ms. Hogan. I felt very welcomed and gained a lot of knowledge from my experience there. I spent the morning at breakfast duty and then helping two children who had a difficult time transitioning to class. Ms. Hogan's approach and with these students is to be commended and reinforced the learning I have had in TCIS. We went on two informal observations and then
debriefed with a second grade teacher. Collaberation between administrator and staff was clear, as both worked together for better outcomes in student work.  

Eagle Academy for young men: 

I enjoyed my time here with Mr. Manradgh. The program that is set up for these young men is very impressive. Mr. Manradgh not only has the respect of his students, but the respect of his staff. We attended a teachers' professional period. The teachers had a clear agenda, that was goal driven.  They had assigned roles and worked together to promote student growth.  The structure of this meeting that  was set up by Mr. Manradgh allowed the teachers to stay focused and stay on task to promote student growth.  He is diligent about supporting his teachers and supplying feedback to the teachers. The value in the experience and watching how different leaders go through the course of the day is the best knowledge. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:37:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375899 Shadowing Petrides https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375998 My first shadowing experience was extremely eye opening and informative. It was amazing to walk in the shoes of a Junior HS AP, especially coming from an early childhood background it was amazing to see the similarities and differences across grades.  i had the opportunity to sit in on a cabinet meeting where the administrators collaborated toward the a common goal of student achievement K-12. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:37:50 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211375998 PS 39 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376264 I was able to shadow at PS 39 a few weeks ago and I must say it was amazing experience. I was able to sit in on a few of the TC Labsite as well as shadow the AP during the safety meeting. One of the things that stood out to me was that they are a Leader In Me School and the students live and breath it. Throughout the building there were several forms of student led initiatives. 
My schools has been trying to be a Leader In Me School for a few years now , so it was great that I was able to pick the assistant principals brain and see how she is able to roll it out.]]> 2017-11-29 13:38:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376264 PS 19 jsolano4 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376619 I was able to observe how the AP dealt with a behavior incident, the process of subjectively interviewing staff and students and also entering the incident into OORS. During my observation, the AP showed me how to enter data into Advance, making sure to lift the language from Danielson and give high leverage feedback. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376619 New Dorp HS - Grades 9-12 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376940 I was fortunate to observe two fellow APs from New Dorp HS. Having been there previously during my college tenure while pursuing my teaching degree, I was able to come back there with a different lens. I sat in on an informal observation, a follow-up meeting from a prior observation, a meeting regarding upcoming staff events, and followed the school leaders walk the halls and visit classrooms to check on student progress. It was a truly eye-opening experience. I hope to shadow other school leaders in the future.]]> 2017-11-29 13:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376940 Shadowing at Tottenville / I.S.49 / New Dorp: I found the shadowing experience to be great! The behind the scenes is so busy that 2 of the leaders hadn't had the opportunity to eat a single thing. Already planning to have small bags of nuts, and pre-cut fruits. I was able to see Principal Scarmato hold a lunch and learn, take low-inference notes alongside Mr. Antinoro on an observation, and see how Principal DeFrancesco deescalates emotionaly charged students in addition to many other valuable things. I participated in greeting students entering the buildings, cabinet meetings, visits from parents, another principal, and district office representatives. It was also evident that community relationships are key to the success of schools. No school is an island and no leader is without a supportive team. fmcauliffe https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211376987

I appreciated the openness of the A.P. These conversations I feel are very beneficial to help future leaders grow and reflect on establishing what their own leadership style will be.]]> 2017-11-29 13:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211377114 Curtis High School https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211377368 The shadowing experience was very informative for me.  There is a lot of work and attention to detail that goes into being a building leader.  I was surprised at how the observation process/format has changed since the days of student teaching as well as my internship for my SBL.

IS 61 showed me the steps that they use to compare their school to all city schools as well as how they use data to show student growth. The most intriguing thing I found was how they use data to show learning trends of heir students.

I was thoroughly impressed to see instructional strategies and lesson structures consistently implemented in a Kindergarten classroom with ELL students and a 5th grade Gifted and Talented Classroom. It was eye opening to see such student engagement from 5 year olds. Mr. Santello helped me to see the importance of systems, how to write an observation in Advance and how to support teachers in a variety of ways. I thoroughly enjoyed this shadowing experience!]]> 2017-11-29 13:42:06 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211377866 IS 75 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211377887 I had the pleasure of shadowing Danielle Martinson, assistant principal of English and Special Ed. My experience at IS 75 gave me a glance at how leaders truly must work collaboratively in order to build capacity within a school building. I was afforded the opportunity to sit in on a cabinet meeting, where leaders bounced ideas about programming and action plans within the school that they would like to move forward with. Aside from the learning walks, and observations, the best part of the day was when Danielle let me pick her brain with questions that I had about being a productive leader within a building. It was during this time that I really understood how willing leaders must be to motivate, encourage and guide others within the learning community. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211377887 Staten Island Tech https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211378038 I wish I was a current student at this school!

The day I shadowed, Mrs. Barone, the principal and AP of security was out of the building so she was on alert. We went over many, although I'm sure not all of the aspects of the position.  She showed me the budget, all the things she does with it, WOW! We did an observation of an english teacher in an ICT setting. We spoke about all the different AP positions there and what they do. It was very clear that HS and middle school (where I am from) are very different) The day flew by! I feel I could have learned so much more and wish I had another day to do so.

The staff, administration, and students all displayed a deep level of respect for one another and their learning environments. The AP informed me about the safety protocols of the school building and of the roles of each AP in the building. We visited classrooms and conducted lunch duty. It became even clearer that safety and security are key to ensuring teachers are supported and an effective instruction can be delivered in any building. ]]> 2017-11-29 13:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211378279 PS60 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211378450 I observed Eddie Palmieri and Donna Bonnano.  What I learned is how important it is to be a visible leader.  Letting the students know who you are and expecting to see you on a daily basis.

The school leader reminds the students daily that he loves them. My biggest take away-always lead with the children in mind especially when you need to have difficult conversations with teachers/staff.

I was able to experience the many different roles each play in a day from greeting students and parents to meeting with teachers one on one to discuss students' needs and how the school could support their needs. I also got to experience teacher observations and discuss feedback and next steps.

During my shadowing experience I learned about the administrators’ leadership styles.  It was interesting to learn about how they developed their style and how their style is fluid based on the needs of the school and its constituents.  It was wonderful to see what other teachers are doing in the classroom and how they exemplify the vision of the school.  The shadowing experience was definitely an eye opener that truly showed the day to day activities, as well as the larger responsibilities of a school building leader.  Overall, it was a positive experience and all the Assistant Principals welcomed me into their school.

I was able to witness arrival, a parent meeting, RTI meeting and a debrief session. Throughout my visit, the principal explained to me each structure or system she is working towards improving and all for the benefit of the students. Mrs. Lopez-Garcia depicted the struggles she has encountered with school culture as well as family connections. The principal took the time to review the leadership competencies with me and honestly assess where she felt were her strengths and deltas.

What an amazing day at P.S. 22. There were two APs and the principal present when I entered the office. I was greeted warmly upon arrival. I sat with one AP as he completed an OORS report, called parents and spoke to three students involved in the incident. It was School Culture Day so we visited a second grade classroom. Parents, staff and students were actively engaged sharing foods and dance from their culture. I would have loved to have spent the day at P.S. 22.

I was invited to sit at a meeting at PS 41 who signed up to be part of #CS4ALL cohort 1. Part of the requirements of the cohort is to pilot coding programs with 2 teachers. Ms. Nevins was collaborating with the AP and two teachers on the comfort levels of the teachers. Part of the job of being a district administrator is marketing, planning, and collaborating and being aware of many moving parts.

I was amazed at how scholars quietly transitioned from one class to the next. The school leader and his three A.P´s included me in their cabinet meetings which is almost never in an office. They meet often in the hallways which allows them to know what´s going on in the classrooms. My biggest takeaways...
*When it comes to having difficult conversations, always lead with children first
*Know your parents
*Get in front of a story before the child gets home

Shadowing an intermediate school AP was different but extremely beneficial because I am in elementary school and often times I do not know what happens after students graduate. 
IS 75 was great because I was able to see transitions as well as implementation.]]> 2017-11-29 13:54:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211383356 I'm excited to engage in my shadowing experience mainly because I will be in two buildings in Brooklyn; John Jay HS of law, and Meyer Levin JHS also in Brooklyn johnson_esrom https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211384970 2017-11-29 13:57:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/211384970 PS29 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217482148 My visit to PS29 was busy but informative.  I was able to sit in on a morning cabinet meeting as the principal and 2 AP's laid out the day and communicated the different things each had on their agenda.  I was also able to sit in on a parent meeting with a student that has been struggling with behavior.  During my time there there were two separate issues that made the AP have to adjust her schedule.  It opened my eyes to how you have to be flexible and prioritize what is on your plate.]]> 2017-12-20 13:33:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217482148 I.S. 49 fmcauliffe https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217482999 The principal is great at fostering relationships within the community to benefit students, parents, and staff.

his feeder school building leaders and brings in outside organizations to address school tone, professional development, and student extra curricular activities.]]> 2017-12-20 13:37:06 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217482999 Is75 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217483060 Shadowing the AP of special education / English was a great experience. I was able to see a true day in the life as many issues came up that were not scheduled but had to be handled. Managing a department and students is no easy task but staying organized and calm as she did, definitely helps! ]]> 2017-12-20 13:37:21 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217483060 PS 30 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217484601 My visit to PS 30 was very informative. I am not used to elementary school so it was definitely an experience. The biggest take aways I had were collaboration and communication is necessary and kids are kids. The amount of communication and collaboration between all of the administration there was amazing. They really work as a team! Assistant Principal Miller is amazing at multi-tasking. It was a great day!]]> 2017-12-20 13:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217484601 Tottenville fmcauliffe https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217484602 At this school I was able to speak with the principal regarding many things including the need to keep the expectations for educational practices high regardless of educator resistance. Even though the principal is facing tons of grievances, he maintains that the students come first and that their learning is paramount. He lead a lunch and learn to model some practices for increasing rigor and actively 
involving all learners in a socratic seminar. I also had the ability to sit in on a post observation conference to witness how discussions regarding the expectations are handled.]]> 2017-12-20 13:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217484602 IS 27 https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217485806 My shadowing experience at IS 27 was hectic. This particular day was very busy and I was very busy. I helped deal with upset parents, was present at a post-observation conference, lunch duty, hall sweep, arrival/dismissal and an OORS report. It was a true experience of the daily happenings at a middle school. Definitely not boring! ]]> 2017-12-20 13:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217485806 New Dorp High School fmcauliffe https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217487066 During this experience, I was primarily taken on observations and discussed the rating of lessons, planning pre and post observation conferences with educators, and completing observations in Advance.

I was able to bring back things to use immediately and also I learned about different leadership styles and things I could hopefully use in the future. ]]> 2017-12-20 14:22:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217493675 John Jay High School Campus I was fortunate enough to experience a campus setting in Brooklyn. It was an enlightening experience as I was informed as to how a building is shared among five different schools in one building. I also learned how significant it is that the administrations of these various schools have to work together to ensure the safety of all students in their building. I also learned how closely the school has to work with the residents and businesses in the community to maintain the harmony of the community. johnson_esrom https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217495865 2017-12-20 14:28:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/217495865 ULit_Rivera https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/463913939 Mark UP the word inventive]]> 2020-03-18 01:50:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/463913939 fuck https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/870317127 2020-10-28 16:17:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cgoffre/SILPShadow/wish/870317127
