Principals are critical to a school’s success. LPI conducted a comprehensive research review of principal learning opportunities and found that what principals learn matters, and how they learn matters. #EdPrepLab

If the PLC isn't about looking at teacher impact, then it's just a meeting.

Admins, you can't lead from your office. Get up and get out! Great leaders don't tell you what to do. They exemplify it through their own actions. What you model is what you get. It starts with YOU.
