Teamwork and Shared Responsibility

Coming off of the excitement of Summer Institute last week, it was great to witness entire teams coming back together in preparation for Open Houses and the return of our students.
Part of our leadership is to make sure that we are all clear on how we can contribute to our organization and our core values. I have attached our values so that you can ask yourself that same question, what can I do to make a difference in these areas? I am highlighting teamwork and shared responsibility as those are two of our core values that were resoundingly evident as I traveled across our schools this week.

Each of you, in your school teams and individually, are committed to a set of shared SAIL goals this school year. Many of you have expressed to me, your deep compassion for the students that will enter your classrooms on Friday. We have the passion and the responsibility to "change the world" for each one of them. Thank you for your contribution to their learning...to their life. In your pursuit of self-actualization, as Maslow framed it, what core values are you committing to the ardor of pursuing with excellence?

Work together...be the tortoise and change the world!
