October 19 Professional Development Day Information

October 19, 2016 Update

The MRVED Common Professional Development Day will soon be upon us.  Teachers will be attending this day either at the Montevideo High School or the Dawson-Boyd High School depending on their discipline or grade level.  Teachers should have received an email yesterday, Thursday, indicating where they will be attending and some additional details on the day.  The following information is probably redundant but it never hurts to reiterate details on the day.

Agenda: (Special Ed teachers have a slightly different agenda)

8:00 a.m. - Coffee and breakfast treats

8:30 a.m. - Meetings commence

11:30 a.m. - Lunch on site

12:00 p.m. - Afternoon meetings commence

2:30 p.m. - Day is done

Lunch:

• We are allowing only a half hour for lunch so if you did not sign up for the catered meal, please bring a bag lunch.
• Money is to be collected at each district. 
• The district superintendents are providing the morning refreshments.

Transportation:

• Check with your district office for transportation details.
• If teachers drive themselves:
• Dawson has parking available in the Community Center lot located on Chestnut St.; a small church parking lot across from the main doors on Chestnut St; and a small parking lot west of the building.
• Montevideo has a very large parking lot on the south side of the building.
• Buses can be parked:
• Dawson - in the Community Center parking lot
• Montevideo - in the bus garage parking lot across from the high school

Entrance Location:

• In Dawson, enter through the main door located on Chestnut Street.
• In Montevideo, enter through the main door on William Avenue (not the gym doors).  A sign above the door reads "Montevideo Senior High School Main Entrance" and the numeral 1.
• There will be a registration table for teachers to pick up their agendas for the day, along with their lunch ticket if they selected to eat the catered meal.

You are strongly encouraged to bring a device.  WiFi will be available at both sites.

This is a new venture for us this year and we will be anxious to read your evaluations on the day.  You will receive an evaluation survey on Monday, 10/24/16 and we would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes to complete the survey.
