THis article touches base on the cocept of what leaders need to move their school toward change. I always try to make decissions that are in the best interest for the student and school. We have so many factors to consider, but the student is the common denominator that is found in everequation.
Always be informative to your staff and community. This year I started a distribution list with parents to help keep them informed. Mailing is so exspensive and sending newsletters home through higgh school students is cause for a janitorial mutiny. This has worked out great. I receive several emails a day from parents asking to be placed on the distribution list. This has happened through word of mouth from other parents. Probly the hardest concept again is ditribution of leadership. At this time I have only a few whom are willing to accept more. Older staff equals "I put my time in let someone else do it." We need to realize that we are in a flux of constant change. We must be willing to change and adapt or will will not evolve. Everyone needs to be a part of the change. Everyone needs to lookat each child as if they are their own. Everyone needs to want and do whats best for each child. It was the second time watching Mr. Hollands Opus with my daughter that I realized that this is the type of teacher I expect for my child. The love, passion, hope and care that he showed each child that he encountered. THis ios the type of person I strive to be. Do I make mistakes? Everyday. But I always try to aire on the students side. Do you find this valuable? |
