Welcome Region 7 Members to Southwest Michigan's online secondary administrator forum; a place to collaborate, discuss, share and gather ideas, resources, and support! I trust each of you have had a safe and rewarding school year. I wish each of you time this summer to regroup, reconnect with family, and refresh in preparation for the 2010-11 school year.
Is anyone using Facebook to officially advertise events in your school?
If so, has anyone created guidelines for this type of activity? Who has approval? Who gives approval? Does the associated email have to be through the school? etc.
Does anyone have suggestions for rewards/incentives for High School students?
Just can't seem to reach one of our students...home life involves a lot of yelling and discipline. We'd like to try the opposite route for positive behavior.

Does anyone remember the "old" graduation requirements from the 80"s? We had them.
I am getting tired of hearing that Michigan did not have any requirements before the new Michigan Merit Curriculum. There was a time that schools received $30 per student K-12 for having the State Graduation requirements. These requirements included Consumer Economics as a Social Studies requirement. I believe most schools requirements before the MMC were based on the $30 incentive. Bill Scaletta

Independent Study
Does anyone in their high school have teachers that do independent studies for students? If so, what guidelines do you use to comply with state requirements?
What are your expectations/requirements for students taking online classes?
I am looking for anyone who can share some information with me regarding expectations or requirements you have at your district with students taking online classes. Do you do credit/no credit only or is there a grade involved? Does it count towards weekly eligibility for athletes? Is there a penalty beyond loss of credit or poor grade if they fail the class since it is an extra out of pocket expense for the district?
Does anyone have a "Freshmen Academy" within their 9-12 building?
We are considering teaming our freshmen class into 4 different groups by using a math,science or social studies team or math, science or language arts team. Does anyone do this now. Posted Nov. 29, 2007
