CLASSMATES SPEAK ABOUT IT... week 2

WK 2 - Making a contribution by leading from any chair

LOURIA ANN MACON

I think my principal is a fine example of that. He is always open to listen to his teachers and give them the opportunity to put their ideas into action. When a teacher shows innovation in the classroom he is the first one to send an e-mail to the staff about the great work they are doing. This inspires our staff to want to do more.he is the first administrator I have had that I actually feel free to discuss my "crazy" ideas.(We actually purchased Wii's for the classroom).

Ok I must first comment on the fact that you believe you don't like reading... I truly understand the ugly taste that 6th grade teacher left in your life, but look at who you've become in spite of her negative tongue!!! I would beg to differ on your thoughts of reading. Not all classics are great stories and you like what you like. You couldn't have gotten this far without liking something about reading even if it is to increase your knowledge, which by the way is a great reason... I am an English teacher and I know that you really love reading!!!

I can appreciate your warm thoughts about your principal because before I left the classroom I had that same great experience with my principal. Making difficult times a little bit easier! Not only was she open to my ideas, but would embrace them so that at least the students we touched would be impacted. It is good to know that there are higher ups who really make a contribution and are not just a title!!!

Keep reading and loving it!!!
