Wow! After nearly 24 years in a classroom, I will be moving to an office and a change in jobs. This is both daunting and exciting.
My mission statement as I approach this new opportunity is:
It is my mission to support excellence in teaching and joy in learning. I believe that all children can learn and all teachers are worthy of respect, dignity and confidentiality. I will support my colleagues in taking risks, finding flow, developing collaborative skills and common visions. I will support the systems in place in our school community that allow learners and teachers to stand in their truth and be who they are. I am ready to sit next to you, not across from you and keep problems in front of us, not between us. I believe that when we work shoulder to shoulder, in the best interests of others, we will always come out the better for it.
