Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program

Hal Henderson is home of the Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program. Mrs. Angela Capers, a "highly qualified" teacher with exceptional talents, developed the program during the 2008-2009 academic year. Mrs. Karen Graves, a "highly qualified" paraprofessional, works collaboratively with the 2010-2011 teacher, Mrs. Patricia Cook, to continously move the program forward. Mrs. Cook was previously our State Department of Education Technical Assistant who evaluated our program. We have 18 students enrolled in Pre-K. I am also pleased to announce that our site has been recognized by the State Department of Education as "exemplary."

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK!

"THERE IS NO BIGGER THRILL THAN HELPING A CHILD GET ON THE RIGHT PATH."

Something to think about....

1. What are your strenghts in your ability to be a turnaround specialist?
2. What resources do you turn to turn a student around when you feel helpless?
3. In a typical conversation with students, how much time do you spend listening to identify demotivating conditions?
4. What types of benefits do students wish to receive as a result of being a better student?
5. Share with a coworker examples of insights students have shared regarding what they need to change in order to experience learning success.



I want to thank all of you for keeping our school going last week in my absence. With "Buster" the school bus and the Missoula Theater performance along with day-to-day routines, you did a marvelous job! Some of you e-mailed questions and we were able to communicate via my blackberry, and I appreciate you asking and keeping in touch when questions and concerns came up. This is just another example of our outstanding teamwork! Keep up the good work!
