EDLD 5399 Competency Assessments: Any Improvements?

I was really impressed with my answers to the Competency Self-Assessment. The method I used to determine which areas I was strong, competent, or needed in improvement in was by totaling the number of S’s, C’, and I’s in each competency. I was considered to be at strength status for Competencies 1,2,4,5,6,7,8, and 10. I am considered competent with Competencies 3 and 10. I believe the reason that I have made some tremendous gains is from the experiences that I have had with our superintendent’s class and the addition of finishing my third year as a principal. Additionally, our current superintendent is in his second year in our district and I have had to work with him continuously as an administrator to help ensure team building and academic success. There are many education programs where the superintendent and high school personnel must visit. I have been blessed that these learning opportunities with my superintendent and ongoing research in my superintendent’s class have given me an abundance of knowledge. According to the assessment, there aren’t any areas for needed growth. I am personally happy with the progress that I have been able to make. Even though the survey showed that I was strong in most competencies, there is always need for improvement. I am always looking to grow in the administration world and look forward to any hands-experiences that will benefit me.
