  2. I am a Colombian teacher that just feels blessed to be able to find a principal with such core values and principles, so well defined and aligned with mine.

    1. I have considered it. I think that would be a great school system to lead! My dilemma is... I have an 18 year old, 16 year old, and 12 year old who have been in the same schools their entire lives. I can't see myself uprooting them from that stability.

  4. Thank you. Far too many administrators out there who base their teacher reviews on test scores, lesson plans, and data based nonsense. Teaching is not a science. It's an art form. Students are not products to be assembled in a factory like atmosphere. Thank you !!!!

  5. Danny, I posted your blog on my work FB page and have had a staggering number of hits! Well done with this piece of work. My FB page is Margaret Thorsborne and Associates, and I'm a restorative pioneer, trainer, author and consultant. Your words are music to my ears..........it fits well with the restorative approach to problem-solving. Young people need to care about the relationships they have with their teachers if our responses are going to work. Which means of course, teachers have to care about kids! Thanks again. Brilliant.

  9. Deeply impressed with the thoughts. With over 20 years of school principalship, I know how true and effective these thoughts are. The only way to improve the productivity of the teachers is to treat them as assets and invest in their growth.
