  29. Helping People Improve (Fullan 2009) ….time and resources DO NOT MEAN A THING unless there is a commitment to DOING. Relentless attention…the work starts when you leave.

Imagine… • A school where a teacher becomes a better educator just by being part of this staff…. • That this exists in all schools…for kids…to accomplish our mission… • Each learner, entrusted to our care, has unique gifts and abilities. It is our mission to find out what these are…Explore them…Develop them…Celebrate them.
