Reflect on if you've committed to the plans set forth by NHA, Warrendale, administration, or even your team. Have you received direction or suggestions and promptly made changes to meet expectations, have you been meeting deadlines, reading emails, been prompt in completing subject planning for your team, held your teammates accountable, uploaded your lesson plan to the school wide folder, or even communicated concerns, support, or solutions. Now be honest and rate your own personal level of commitment to your team.

On a scale of 1-3, how committed are you to meeting the expectations of your role at Warrendale?

1: Not committed

2: Partially committed

3: 100% all in!
