The skill "Evolving and Reflective" is a top priority for me. I regularly read a wide variety of materials to help me better understand leadership, education trends, and technology. While I encourage my assistants in the same behavior, they both have small children and handle short articles with specfic foci, rather than books. I encourage continuous growth and reinvention in my faculty by supporting their efforts to try "new things" in the classroom and by copying articles that deal with their subject area or interest areas. Do you find this valuable?

These are great ideas. At times I too will forward "good" articles... and suggest life long learning. It is interesting when a few teachers will stop by to chat about what I have passed along. Great job of reminding me to continually do this. Do you find this valuable?
