An Invitation to Visit


Blair Academy
Class Visits:  2012-2013

Inspired by Rob Evans’s presentation and in hopes of building upon the already well-received "Department Open Houses," the PDC plans to create a cross-departmental, team (two observers) visit program in order to foster even more collegiality among the Blair Faculty.

The PDC would like to get as many teachers, administrators and staff involved in the program as possible. In order to "grease the wheels" a bit, we are willing to do the semi-tedious "paperwork" of creating Visiting Teams and matching up class schedules, so that participants need only agree on a time to get together before the end of the year (or more! 2 visits are better than 1, especially if they are spaced out over time).
So, we are looking for volunteers to visit classes, have their classes visited, and ideally to do both.  If you would like to participate, simply email Mike Eckert (eckerm@blair.edu) and let him know.  You can also fill out this Google Form to provide the needed information:  Blair Academy - Class Visits
If you email, include:
1.  The blocks you teach and what you teach during those blocks.
2.  Whether you would like to visit, have visitors, or do both.
Once we have put a visitation grid together, we will follow-up with further details, suggestions and resources.
Thanks, 
The PDC
