There are fewer things that I dislike more than being out of the classroom. However, I am a part of 40 other teachers from WCS and DPS that have volunteered their time and experience to be a part of "The Leadership Academy." Today, I spent most of my time thinking, "What are my educational beliefs?" To stir some of our thoughts, we were shown a video of Jeff Bezos, the founder of "Amazon.com" at the 2010 Princeton Graduation.
To help you understand, I would challenge you to watch the video below for at least the first five minutes. If you have enough time, watch the whole thing. This may help you understand what our local school systems want to accomplish.
And if you have even more time, I would like to know your thoughts about "gifts" and "choices."
Thank you for being a part of The Leaderdhip Academy! I'm sure your gifts will shine in years to come Mr. H in our students GOOD CHOICES as you polish their gifts this year!
