I think the best way to have a learning focus is to create engaging material that promotes learning. I think acknowledging the fact that summer is coming is appropriate but it needs to be emphasized that there is still work to be done. #Apchat
A2: Continue to publicly celebrate the great things that are going on in the building and highlighting the high levels of rigor that I see in the classrooms on a daily basis. #apchat
I think celebrating success motivates us to do more. The celebration of the hard work put in at the end of the year would promote even more success for the next year. #APchat
A3: Celebrations are great. They help us to realize the impact we are having and that is very motivating. I like to push however for not just celebrating, but focusing on the adult actions that led to success. That way it can be replicated by others! #APChat
Q4: How do you balance all the needs (testing, scheduling, etc.) of closing out the year without losing sight of our ultimate goal of learning? #APChat
A5: When there is a change of leadership people tend to expect a degree of change. This is a fantastic opportunity to energize the stakeholders and bring about a positive impact on education! #APChat
