   I am a principal in a large school district. There are five high schools who have quite different demographics. A few schools are diverse and consist of middle to low social economic classes. A couple schools are predominately white and students come from middle to upper social economic classes. Would you recommend that the entire district create PLCs for common content areas that involve teachers who are not singletons? An example: each school (5) has a business department that consists of 2 or 3 members. The direction from the district is for the business departments to form a district PLC. Is this recommended or would it be more effective if each school form their own school PLC?

   What is your recommendation for the minimum number of members that make up a team?

   I hope you will be able to provide me feedback in this area. I am frustrated!
