@EducatingChamps The crown of school responsibility can be heavy, but utilizing the expertise of staff in your school and of others in the district can make the burden lighter and keep the principal abreast of and in compliance with new mandates and legislation. #wisertogether
@EducatingChamps Leading a school is a heavy responsibility, but utilizing the expertise of staff within your school and in the district can help school leaders stay abreast of mandates and new legislation. #TogetherWeAreStronger
@EducatingChamps The responsibility of leading a school is never easy especially if your attitude is that you need to as a leader do it all by yourself. Tap into experts in your school and district. Responsibility can be heavy, but doing this makes it lighter.
@EducatingChamps Collegial relationships are established by the principal to create trust and respect. Walkthroughs, effective and timely feed, and being visible in the school produces collaboration and effective school culture. It's all about the students!
In "The Principal 50," school improvement can be directly related to the principal's ability to stay true to his/her why, schedule, and goals for that day. Proactive trumps reactive.@EducatingChamps
Thank you @NELA_NCSU and @NCPFellows for all of the opportunities to learn, grow, and think as a hungry, humble, smart, and equity-minded principal-in-training! 1 year down and 1 more to go! Thank you Dr. Lisa Bass, @wch33, @fpriddick, @EducatingChamps, @Tim_A_Drake
@EducatingChamps Continuous school improvement means we are moving forward. If not, we're going backwards, and we'd be depriving our students of the best education they can receive. We should always be looking for ways to improve learning for ALL of our students!
@EducatingChamps Strategies form the weapons by which we conquer our goals and objectives. Hope can be the impetus behind our strategies, but can never be the strategy.
@EducatingChamps We have made school improvement hard by not taking into account the culture of the school. It might be easier to start with what is working in the culture and use those good aspects of school culture as a base from which to start school improvements.
