I am beginning a new journey soon and thus, have decided to create a blog. I have accepted a position as elementary principal and I cannot wait! Being where the action is….with students and teachers, is truly what fills my bucket! My career as an educator has blossomed and grown over the years and for this, I am extremely thankful. My greatest hope is to continue making a difference in the lives of those around me. Education is big business…being a part of "growing" kids to their full potential is full of rewards and challenges.
I got to thinking about blogging as an administrator and something that permeated throughout the process was the fact that being a mom to three wonderful (now adult) children has really shaped who I have become as an educator. Each of my children presented different learning styles. What stands out the most to me, is the need to meet each and every child at the door. Differentiation. Period. It is quite wonderful that the opportunity to provide different paths to learning for students continues to grow!
So, in my humble attempt to simply provide food for thought, my personal goal is to share the most happy moments in my path as an Elementary Principal!
It's summertime! But I will be transitioning to my new role and look so forward to sharing.
