…or Association National Conference (#ASCA13) – you will have the chance to meet some of your favorite bloggers…myself included if you so choose to place me in that esteemed category! Please see the insert below for details and stay tuned for more info regarding ASCA 2013 in Philly coming very soon. I also promise to get a new blog post up soon…2 weeks before school is out and I gain a bit more time. Thanks for being patient! Sound off if you will…
…will pay more for it. The winery will then sell the excess off as another label or to another company to bottle it under their label (as TJ’s does). You may say that you actually LIKE the cheaper wine (if you’ve ever been to a blind wine tasting – you know how that usually goes), but from a marketing and branding perspective – if there are a few TJ’s selling a $50 label for $15 – it diminishes not only the demand, but makes you question why we ar…
…ting for others at my site to do the same. Our #scchat tweetup and blogger meet and greet was a lot of fun and I look forward to meeting many of the new bloggers/twitterers that jumped on board at ASCA 2013 in Orlando next summer. I will leave off my ASCA re-cap at this point. TCG – Where have you been?? Immediately following ASCA 13, my wife and I took a nice and needed vacation. We headed to Europe to travel and got back yesterday evening. We m…
…abel developer to integrate the background from my portfolio onto the disc label. I printed address labels with the title of the disc and my contact info to put on the jacket. I am pretty happy with the turn out. 3. Letters of Recommendation: I included the standard three letters in all of the packets so they could reference them if needed or see further evidence that supports my candidacy. 4. My Notepad: I always bring my schnazzy note pad to tak…
…ppen. From that, you can also assign specific people to tasks and give them a deadline all within the same line. At the end of the meeting, if you have added all members names and email addresses to the meeting, all you need to do is click file and it goes directly to meeting participant’s emails! A great tool to check out and see if it is a good fit for you. [adrotate group=”1″]…
…doing for dinner or if they came with a group of colleagues that you could meet too. Remember – this is not a date or an interview so there are no wrong answers and you can always back out… Another tip for networking is carry some business cards. This is a handy way to keep in touch or to help meet up at a later time at the conference. I love to collect business cards at ASCA and usually bring about 100 with me. Several times a year, I find myself…
…ensate schools or districts for the monumental staff and space required to meet their ever increasing space and security requirements. This often also requires that school staff start and end their day outside of their contractual hours and this also is often unpaid and viewed as professional duties to run these academic programs. In my initial blog post – I tallied up my time on task for just the 2-3 weeks of AP Exam administration and proctoring…
…– I had a lot of learning, reflection, and networking on my mind. I got to meet and reconnect with both uber experienced veteran school counselors and school counselors just starting their journey into the profession. I still feel like a baby-faced newbie, but finishing year five – I feel like I have learned a LOT in that time. I decided I wanted to write a letter to myself that I wish I could have read on day 1 of the job. Check it out below and…
…of the Circle of Care (by the way – I just named it this so it wasn’t our “Meeting about concerned students…meeting” and it sounds more supportive and comprehensive) include myself, our school principal and assistant principal, school psychologist, our Wellness Center staff*, and occasionally an invited teacher or other staff member who may have special insight or interest in the case to be discussed. *Our Wellness Center is a place for students t…
…ech challenge – join me! #scchat”] Tip #2: Start small. When we set out to meet a goal – we don’t aim for the moon (that is a dream) without going to astronaut school. While a 90 lb. twelve year old may not be able to bench press 300 lbs today – with focus, direction, support and a little hard work – he can reach that goal. Be that 90 lb. twelve year old. Don’t expect to conquer cyberspace, code the next Amazon.com or even commit to loving Twitter…
