Please respond to the latest School Leadership 2.0 survey
The Louisiana House of Representatives advanced a bill that would hold parents liable for fines of up to $5,000 for threats their children call into schools. House Bill 137 passed 71-26 following vigorous debate. Children 14 and older convicted of making a school threat would face a mental examination, up to 12 months of probation or six months in juvenile detention, and mandated participation in the Back on Track Youth Pilot Program. Do you approve of such a measure?

Cuts are being made to teachers, TAs, & other support staff. The only ADM being cut is 1 who is retiring & not being replaced. It is disgraceful that my district has so many ADMs, and none of them are being cut. The ADM-to-teacher ratio is 10:1.
OUHSD has created its own problems. They should never have built Del Sol High School. The district has overspent in many ways (Wellness Centers) in the last 5-7 years, and that has now neg. affected many employees due to those overspending mistakes.
Could not check all that apply - survey only allowed one choice

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
