Michelle,
You point out something very important. A plan shouldn't be killed because it didn't work out right away. It could be a good plan that needs adjusting. You are quite right that weekly or even daily evaluation will help to head off problems in the beginning. People are too quick to stop something because often they are afraid. We learn more when things don't work. It forces us to be creative and consider other options. Maybe someone will be brave enough to re visit your community outreach plan. We also think one person needs to be out in the community every day. In fact, they shouldn't even have a desk at the school! Thanks, Susan
