CTLE Workshop: Safe Space Forum for Assistant Principals Tuesdays, March 19th at 4:30 P.M with Dr. Mike Fama
2024-03-19 16:30 - 17:15 | VIA ZOOM
To help assistant principals navigate sometimes unchartered waters, CAS has developed a series of three (3) workshops for assistant principals focusing on topics generated by the participants that will explore the importance of educational leadership, common workplace concerns, best practices, personal and professional growth, and collaboration, all anchored in the Professional Standards of Educational Leaders (PSEL). These confidential workshops will allow participants to work with a seasoned mentor and network with colleagues in similar positions across Long Island. Participants will indicate the topics they would like to discuss and submit questions about these topics when registering. Participants are welcome to attend some or all sessions.
The workshops will be facilitated by Dr. Michael Fama, longtime principal of the John F. Kennedy Middle School in Comsewogue. Mike has also been a mathematics and business teacher in the East Meadow School District and an Assistant Principal at Lindenhurst Middle School. He was instrumental in guiding JFK Middle School through the recent pandemic and achieving Middle States Accreditation. In addition to teaching and motivating future school leaders at St. Joseph’s University in Patchogue, he is currently visiting schools seeking accreditation throughout the northeast as a Volunteer Team Member for the Middle States Association.
This workshop is at no cost to all CAS administrators. CAS is a certified NYSED Continuing Teacher Leader Education (CTLE) sponsor, and successful participants will earn one (1) hour of CTLE professional development credit applicable toward the hours needed for continuing certification for each session. Upcoming CAS CTLE Workshops are scheduled throughout the school year and communicated through email and the www.casliny.com website.

Each year around this time, CAS sponsors a Financial Literacy Program for our members to help them plan for their eventual retirement. Even if you are not actively considering retirement and preparing for life post-retirement, this could be an excellent opportunity to learn more about the New York State Teachers Retirement System, Social Security, and your tax-deferred benefit plans. It is never too early to start thinking about retirement and actively planning for it. Whether you are considering retiring sooner or later, we have designed an essential workshop for our members as a part of our continuing CAS Financial Literacy Program that you may find extremely helpful.
On behalf of CAS, I would like to invite you to attend a workshop designed to enhance your financial literacy as you prepare for the next phase of your life.
