As school leaders, we’re faced with dozens of decisions every day. The best leaders I’ve worked with? They don’t guess. They lead from their values. For me, it’s culture, communication, and rigorous curriculum. Need help identifying your core values, message me.

Simple? Yes. Easy? No. Strong leadership starts with self-awareness. Know your values. Lead from them. Mine: Culture. Communication. Rigorous Curriculum. DM me to define yours before the school year begins. 🧭 #SchoolLeadership #EdLeadership #PrincipalCoach #CoreValues

Such a privilege to serve in this capacity!

Leadership is hard. Principal leadership is relentless. This list (shared with me recently) sums it up.: ✅ Make the call you're afraid to make ✅ Lead when no one’s following ✅ Try, fail, try again You don’t have to do it alone. I coach leaders through the hard stuff.

Back-to-school leadership = planning, hiring, scheduling, meetings… chaos. Here’s a tip I share with those I coach: The 1-Minute Rule If it takes <1 min, do it now. Email. Invite. Reminder. Done. Small wins = momentum. Start small. Lead light. #PrincipalLife #SchoolLeadership

"Clear is Kind." – Brené Brown As school leaders, the best back-to-school gift we can give our teachers is clarity. Clear priorities. Clear expectations. Clear support. Because when we lead with clarity, our teachers can lead with confidence. #SchoolLeadership #ClearIsKind

The first day sets the tone for the year — but only if we learn from it. -What worked? -What didn’t? -What will you change tomorrow? Reflection turns experience into growth.

Day 2 of Kagan Cooperative Learning at Zoneton Middle ✅ New team structures, sharper lesson planning, and matching the right structure to the right content goal. This group is ready to welcome students back with energy & purpose! 💡📚 #Kagan #CooperativeLearning #EdLeadership

The most powerful leadership moves are often the simplest. ✅ Visit every classroom daily ✅ Lead with core values ✅ Focus on student learning ✅ Know who’s on a plan ✅ Call guardians when needed ✅ Have the hard conversations #SchoolLeadership #PrincipalPowerMoves

A school isn’t powered by staff who just work together—it’s powered by teams who trust each other. Principals build trust by: 🔹 Being transparent 🔹 Following through 🔹 Showing vulnerability Trust starts with us. 💙 #SchoolLeadership #Trust #Principals

Strong leadership starts with self-awareness. Know how you decide. Know how you recharge. Know what drives you. When you lead from your strengths, you inspire others to do the same. 💡 #Leadership #Education
