This is your reminder that school administrators are human, too. WHEN they get it wrong, which they will, please be ready to show them the same grace you would want to receive.

Teaching isn't just about lessons, it's about caring and giving hope. Every day, you shape futures and ignite dreams. You don't just inspire today, but you show them the way to a better tomorrow. Thank you, teachers, for the hope you bring! #Lovebeforelessons

Effective principals don't just lead their staff; they coach individuals to harness their strengths. It's about maximizing talents, turning potential into performance, and achieving success through the collective power of untapped abilities.

Leaders, hire teachers for their strengths and then lead them to maximize their strengths.

And we wonder why no one wants to become a teacher: *Having no voice even as an expert *Working excessive hours unpaid *Limited resources *Navigating bureaucratic hurdles *Dealing w/ disruptive behavior *Lack of respect/recognition *Unrealistic expectations *Burnout

Effective leaders take care of the ones who take care of our students!

School culture is not created by a mission statement on a wall, but it is created and lived out daily by everyone in the school building.

Effective leadership is all about the quality of relationships cultivated. Strong connections foster trust, encourage open communication, and promote collaboration, all of which are vital for success. Thank you to all the amazing school leaders who live this daily!

You may not always get the best from students, but when they know you care for them and want the best for them, they will always give you better.

Teacher effectiveness is not greatly improved by curriculum, new programs, or initiatives. But, when teachers are respected, valued, supported, & feel like their talents are utilized, then morale increases, job engagement soars, & students benefit too!

Authentic leaders don’t have to talk about their core values. Everyone already knows their core values based on their actions.

Instructional leadership is not about improving teachers; It is about creating the conditions where teachers can improve themselves. Danny Steele #essentialtruths Todd Whitaker

Having a terrible school administrator can literally ruin your life — mentally, emotionally, financially, socially. The gaslighting, manipulation, ineptitude, deception. Smh. I am so sorry for any who have been forced to suffer through this.

Ontario’s principals and vice-principals continue to struggle with new gov't initiatives, staff shortages, violence in schools & mental wellness. We need fair & adequate compensation, support, respect & efforts to address work intensification. Full stmt: bit.ly/4bBC2ml

Always remember…

People work harder when they feel appreciated 👌

Principals, sometimes a kid needs to be removed from class, a parent/guardian needs called, and a consequence needs given.

Lead, don't manage.

Be a great leader!
