If I Was in Charge of a School....

I have no intention of going into administration, but this is my dream school (if money was not an issue and there were no state or federal mandates.)

1. Students would have music and art every other day on an AB rotating schedule.
2. Students would start using Kidblog in second grade.
3. Once a month there would be an all school talent show and art show during lunch.
4. Students would have PE everyday.
5. Teachers would observe each other and steal ideas from them to incoorperate into their own classrooms.
6. Observations would be about sharing ideas and getting better.
7. The lead learner (AKA principal) would teach at least one class a semester.
8. Students would have library three times a week.
9. The building would have big open rooms and the hallways would be colorful.
10. The hallways would be full of student work.
11. Each classroom would have a website.
12. Standardized tests would not exist.

This is my dream. I realize that it would not all be possible. What does your dream school look like?
