NATIONAL FORUM SCHOOL TO WATCH OAESA’s Middle School Representative Carrie Sanchez hosted middle level principals and educators at her building, Port Clinton Middle School, which recently earned re-designation as a National Forum School to watch. The May 28 visit was an opportunity for OAESA members to learn about and observe outstanding co-teaching practices, experience the unique rotating master schedule, and hear presentations from National Forum Executive Director Ericka Uskali and Sanchez on how to grow and develop a school into a National School to Watch. Sanchez said, “It was an awesome day of collaboration. There is no better way to gain new ideas and new perspectives than to spend quality time with people who do the same job you do! The role of the school administrator is often performed in isolation. Having the opportunity to see other schools in action is priceless!” If anyone is interested in hosting a site visit for middle school leaders in their area next school year, please contact Carrie Sanchez via email at csanchez@pccsd-k12.net.
