For me: The greatest gift I ever received from a leader was FOCUS! There’s always 10x more to do than there are hours of the day. When a leader cuts through the noise and helps to put “first things first,” it makes ALL the difference!

Transparent leaders allow others to look through them at the landscape ahead. They don’t obfuscate, but they don’t add anything.
Vulnerably visible leaders authentically show up and add VALUE to the landscape.
Not hiding things is different than truly contributing :)
🎉We welcomed new district leaders, applauded an amazing counselor and celebrated talented Fine Arts students across the district. ⭐Plus, we got a preview of the latest construction updates.🚧 See the highlights in the latest Board Recap. https://t.co/cGJ9nAfHd8 #ProsperProud
It’s entirely possible to manipulate with good intentions, but I wouldn’t recommend it. When you manipulate others, you take away their agency to accept your influence. Conversely, when you motivate, you honor agency for the powerful force that it is. Agency drives change.

Basquiat inspired dinosaur kings by my super talented kindergarteners!
I also ADORE this book. Basquiat and Maya Angelou, what a duo! 🤲🏽✨

Our drill teams had the opportunity to work with Mrs. Holder today as they refined their competition dances. The work ethic of these students is amazing. They definitely got a work out today.

In the immortal words of Bruce Springsteen,You can’t start a fire without a spark…. I’m pretty sure the Boss also said “You can’t have all the BRILLIANT fine arts in Mansfield without BRILLIANT leadership.” Bravo Dr. Johnson!!
Our Fine Arts Director, Dr. Johnson gave an excellent presentation on Planning with the End in Mind which showcased our Music programs at the Texas Music Educators Association state conference. Thank you, Dr. Johnson for providing our students with amazing leadership.

Just as fire cannot exist without 1) heat, 2) oxygen, and 3) fuel... stellar performances require 1) amazing teaching, 2) outstanding students.... and 3) tremendous principal support!
