Goal setting is a major aspect of our job. The difficulty that is associated with goal setting at our school are the goals that we develop in order to meet the expectations of NCLB. Many of the goals are worthwhile and important in our quest to make improvements. However, some goals are difficult to reach. Improving the graduation rate is paramount. After reviewing a lot of data... the drop out student is typically a student that does not attend school on a regular basis. Attendance is difficult to improve when the parent and student does not value education. Therefore, leading and motivating the staff to stay "true to the cause" of improving graduation rate is difficult at best when getting students to school is difficult for any teacher or administrator to achieve. Do you find this valuable?
