Developing CRM Meeting Norms

May 1, 2018 In Professional Learning Communities, norms represent protocols and commitments developed by each team to guide members to work together. Norms help team members clarify expectations regarding how they will work together to achieve their shared goals. ~ R. DuFour, R. Eaker, R. DuFour As a staff, we worked together to develop a set of norms, which are followed at each of our CRM meetings.  These norms were developed to keep our meetings focussed and aligned with the goal of improving student achievement. These norms are read at the beginning of each meeting. CRM Norms for EEE - - - 2017-2018 * We begin our meeting on time * We prepare for the meetings ahead of time so that our time together is maximized and     student-focused * We build trust by listening with an open mind and refrain from making judgments about students     and staff. * Please share your ideas - - - together we have a vast knowledge and years of experience * We will do whatever it take
