Reflection on Week 2

In completing my week 2 assignment, I decided to create a mentor plan for new teachers to our campus. We have a serious need for this type of thing on our campus for a long time. Our campus has lost at least 5 new teachers in the last 8 years, and I think this is primarily because of a lack of support. Granted, each of these people was assigned a mentor, but several of these folks did not feel that they were in need of any kind of assistance. It is rather difficult to help people who do not feel that they need it! The readings for week 2 also showed us at least 9 different "hats" that an administrator has to wear. You don't really stop very often and look at all that is entailed in being an administrator until you have it spelled out for you--this is sometime rather daunting!
