it matters. You need to become

This will help you use your culture

“A great
leader takes
people where
they don’t necessarily
want to go, but ought to
be.” Rosalynn Carter
LEADERSHIP

“The single most influential
component of an effective
school are the individual
teachers within the school.”

socioeconomic factors or funding levels. It is
instruction.” Mike Schmoker

The most valuable resource that all teachers
have is each other. Without collaboration our
growth is limited to our own perspectives.
