Ligon Middle School

This year, cooperating teacher has moved from Daniels Middle School to Ligon Middle School; even though this is an exciting move, I am not as familiar with Ligon as I was with Daniels. The school's location is a major difference than that of Daniels; Ligon appears to be set in a lower-economic part of Raleigh. The staff is very focused and positive about giving their students highly effective teaching; I am looking forward to working with them for a great (and busy) student teaching semester!

I did attend a faculty meeting at the beginning of this week, which was exciting because it was my first student teaching experience this semester. A lot of information was given that day, and it was a lot to take in; I have much more to learn. I need to learn more about Ligon's PBS system, along with everyday school procedures. I was never fully aware about the smaller details that make a school run much more smoother, such as duties and behavior policies.

There are many things I still need to learn about Ligon Middle School, and I plan to gain more knowledge on school policies and procedures this upcoming week.
