Internship Plan

Although my goal is to address all competencies at some point during my internship, I have designated a prioritized list of where I would like to begin. My priorities are as follows;

Domain I Competency II

• Implement strategies for involving all stakeholders in planning processes and for facilitating planning between constituencies.
• Use formal and informal techniques to monitor and assess district/school climate for effective, responsive decision making.
• Facilitate the development, use, and allocation of all available resources, including human resources, to support implementation of the district's vision and goals.

Domain I Competency III

• Develop and implement an effective and comprehensive internal and external district communications plan and public relations program.
• Analyze community and district structures and identify major opinion leaders and their relationships to district goals and programs.
• Communicate and work effectively with diverse social, cultural, ethnic, and racial groups in the district and community so that students receive appropriate resources and instructional support to ensure educational success.
• Develop and use formal and informal techniques to gain an accurate view of the perceptions of district staff, families, and community members.

Domain I Competency IV

• Analyze and respond to political, social, economic, and cultural factors affecting students and education.
• Access and work with local, state, and national political systems and organizations to elicit input on critical educational issues.

Domain II Competency II

• Plan and manage student services and activity programs to address developmental, scholastic, social emotional, cultural, physical, and leadership needs.
• Establish a comprehensive school district program of student assessment, interpretation of data, and reporting of state and national data results.

Domain II Competency III

• Facilitate the application of adult learning principles to all professional development activities, including support and follow up activities.

Domain III Competency II

• Implement appropriate, effective procedures in relation to district transportation services, food services, and other services.

With the help of Ms. Krohn and other district-level personnel, I hope to address these competencies as well as all competencies on my self assessment.
