Best team in Burton! SUMMIT COLLEGIATE HIGH SCHOOL Martin Medina Danielle Aguilar @SCHS_Counselor_

I have heard it said, if they dont praise you show up & work anyway, or if they criticize/don't appreciate you show up & do the work anyway. I get being self driven and never giving up, but why should anyone have to work like this.Effective leaders encourage, praise, & appreciate

Admin, take time to: *Say hello to staff & students in the hall * Check on teachers, especially life events they’re dealing with * Sit in on classes & leave note * Occasionally sub *Show staff you appreciate them * Ask what staff needs to succeed * Encourage * Say Thank you

The best leaders spend time speaking with, listening to, and getting to know the people they lead.

Effective teachers don't center their approach on rules, but rather on relationships, routines, & expectations. Prioritizing these over rules means spending less time enforcing them. When you invest in relationships, routines, & expectations, rule enforcement becomes less needed

So true! 🍿

The best leaders care about those they lead.

Leadership is not about being in the spotlight; it's about being the spotlight that shines on the talents and achievements of your team.

Thank you to all the amazing assistant principals for your dedication, leadership, and support of students and staff!

Value your staff but also add value to them

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

Teachers love Admin who: 1) Roll up their sleeves to help 2) Really listen 3) Present: in classrooms, hallways, cafeteria, lunchroom 4) Value teachers' time 5) Support/encourage them 6) Respect /value them 7) Have their back 8] Appreciate them

The only people who will remember you worked 60 to 70 hours per week will be your family, but not in a good way.

I appreciate the work of principals everywhere because the principal's role is like middle management in the business world—lots of responsibility, but limited authority.

Always learning.

Support, encourage, and appreciate.

The principal is the thermostat.
