One of the toughest jobs in education is being a principal.
Every day, principals are balancing mandates, district expectations, meetings, parent concerns, student needs, staffing issues, budgets, discipline, testing pressures, and a thousand other responsibilities most people never see.
And somehow in the middle of all that, the best principals still find ways to encourage their teachers.
They show up in classrooms. They check on people. They celebrate small wins. They protect staff when they can. They try to keep morale up even when they’re exhausted themselves.
Great principals live in the tension between leading systems and leading people.
And the ones who never lose sight of their staff in the middle of all the pressure deserve more appreciation than they often receive.
To the principals who continue fighting for kids while also trying to support, encourage, value, and appreciate their teachers:
Thank you.
Your staff may not always see everything you do behind the scenes, but your presence, support, and leadership matter more than you know.
Education is still a people business. And great principals never forget that. @NAESP @NASSP

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Our Eagles loved our first Club Day! 🦅 LEGOs, yoga, silent book clubs, volleyball, finger knitting, and more—students followed their interests while living out the 7 Habits through teamwork, leadership, and self-care. A great day to synergize and sharpen the saw!

[ebenezer_avenue @ebenezer_avenue]

Get ready for a fun-filled week of school spirit as we celebrate the season together! From snowy styles and jolly hats to bright colors, positive messages, and cozy Polar Express pajamas, each day is a chance for students to connect and enjoy each other.
