The Main Thing


I hope that everyone had a fantastic first day with students.  I loved seeing everyone's smiling faces in the buildings I was able to visit today. First days are full of possibility and excitement.  It is a fresh start for teachers, students, administration, and parents alike.  With the start of the school year, we often set goals for ourselves, both personally and professionally. When reflecting on those goals, remember Stephen Covey's advice: "The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing." Principals are working hard to narrow the focus with the Theory of Action. This should allow teachers to focus and refine their craft as they gain and practice new skills and strategies to positively impact student academic and social growth. Make it a great year!
