Wow! What a day and what practice. When dealing with parents the "win/win" is a must. When parents find out they have to go before the board they react in so many different ways. The only way to make it work, is to keep them calm and practice the "win/win." It works every time.
The quote from The Leader in Me, "We only get one chance to prepare our students for a future that none of us can possibly predict. What are we going to do with that one chance?" is a sobering thought. Blount County has a current track record for not settling for mediocrity. I want to strive to travel the narrow uphill path that will challenge me,our students as well as all my colleagues to achieve the highest levels of "human possibilities".
