Overview:

This week was fairly slow. I met with the Policy Administrator, Andy Kloepser, and we talked about the
various projects he manages. We briefly discussed the VISTA project, service continuity planning, his
oversight of federal and state policy compliance, and his role in safety. I spoke with Erin Weaver about
getting information for the survey and contacting parents. I attended a department Town Hall meeting
where projects were discussed and fire safety was featured. I began to research parent engagement
tools and grants for volunteer services. I also got in touch with Chandler Sickmund, a TVI, to discuss the
parent survey they sent out last June. They received 10 responses. I got the primary information they
were trying to gain from the survey, and she also gave me some insight on what parents may need to
make their collaboration even more successful. We talked about having parent events in places that
were more social, and having family night on different days. I thought it was an enlightening
conversation. As I told her, I am at DVI to learn, and I think I learned a great deal from her. Finally, I
missed my supervision appointment this week. We set the time for Wednesday, and I forgot to put it on
my calendar. I will use my calendar more effectively to avoid this in the future.
