 * Topics/ Meeting Outcomes: We discussed with Julie our idea of going to visit Patrick Allen's classroom to support our Conferring study. Julie is in contact with the PEBC. She will be coming to observe and participate in our face to face Conferring meeting. We shared our work at each school. Wilder has revamped their SIT process to make it more user friendly. ILP completion was a topic of discussion with details of the final entries. Positive responses to our wiki book study/discussion were shared. Planning days at Wilder are being used for extension of PLC work. Franklin is planning to use their planning days to work on writing their essential learnings and aligning them throughout the building and vertically across grade levels. We reflected on the current implementation of literacy. Principal/IC regular meeting times are held regularly at some schools and sporatically at others, much of this due to the changing responsibilities of ICs created by budget issues. **
 * Our //Transforming School Culture// discussion included our application of the books thinking to our staffs. We appreciate the opportunity to read and share the book with our principals. **


 * Questions/ Concerns/ Requests: We would like to have Patrick Allen's e-mail address. Please share with Kelly Card. **
