@stoneysclass I loved how clearly this was laid out! Sometimes it can feel overwhelming with all of the best practices floating around out there, but categorizing them like this makes it much more manageable and actionable.

@BPeducates @GSUEdLead This part of the report was so motivating! It's awesome to know effective principals can impact student success so strongly even when they aren't teaching them directly. A great principal can still have a great impact by ensuring students have GREAT teachers!

Groups that grow together GLOW together! According to the Wallace Foundation's study of Principal effectiveness, the best principals out there drive collaboration by fostering learning communities and prioritizing PLCs for student success. #GSUEdLead

@mrsuremovich Yes! I found this so interesting, too. Principals shape top-notch teaching, impacting outcomes. A 5-7 point increase in student RELA & Math percentiles underlines their profound influence. Their leadership sets success trajectories, ensuring each student thrives.

@Holla_at_Ayala This stood out to me, too! A great principal really can set the tone, empower teachers, and foster a culture of growth and excellence. Strong, positive leadership at the top cascades positive impacts throughout the entire school community.

As it turns out, great leaders really do make great schools! Effective principal leadership significantly impacts student outcomes: academic achievement, attendance, discipline, teacher attitudes, and retention. Investing in leadership yields substantial returns. #GSUEdLead

@ebillsGSU Spot on! Effective principals drive collaboration, manage resources, and foster positive climates. Implications for ed leadership are vast - policy shifts, diversity, and supporting new leaders in varied settings.

[Christine Mattke @MrsMattke]

@DaBeautynTeachn Completely agree! Addressing the gap in leadership and tackling turnover in our highest-need schools is crucial.

[Christine Mattke @MrsMattke]

Exciting shifts in school leadership: more female principals and younger leaders! Let's embrace diversity and empower future leaders to meet the needs of our students and our communities! 🚀 #GSUEdLead https://t.co/Y7cI9zafia

@BarnesTeaches Excited to engage in this work alongside you this semester! I agree - The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is a true classic. My dad used to play it for us on repeat during family road trips. 🙃 I still love going back to it for motivation!

[Christine Mattke @MrsMattke]

@techatgalloway So excited to be working together again this semester! I've been looking for a great book about change management - adding "Switch" to my cart now!

@CoachAllen1975 @mariagcarter19 Great perspective! Surrounding oneself with diverse opinions creates a powerful space for well-rounded decision-making. Embracing both agreement and dissent ensures a thorough exploration of ideas, leading to solutions that truly benefit our students!

[Christine Mattke @MrsMattke]

@MarcquezHaley @GSUEdLead Absolutely! Empathy leads to belonging, and belonging leads to a sense of shared purpose, fostering a community where everyone thrives.

New leadership, take note! Understanding the legacies that linger is vital for steering the ship toward continued success. Former leaders leave a lasting impact, shaping our responses and embodying core values. #GSUEdLead https://t.co/1zGWoXBfhB
