The Changing Seasons of Leadership ~ To Everything There is a Season 2
AMessagefromourPresidentFromtheFall2017BacktoSchoolNewsletterTo everything there is a season…andwhen I think about seasons,mymind immediately thinks about the 4standards - summer, winter, fall and spring. Well, truth be told, it really goes to the other “standards”,football,basketball,baseball,etc…andformanyofyou,itprobablydoesthesame.Nevertheless,ifwethinkabout seasons in terms of leadership and our careers in education,wewouldmost likely begin by thinkingaboutourtimeintheclassroom.Andnodoubt,wewouldhavesomefondmemoriesofthosechildrenwehavehadtheopportunitytoserve.However,mostofus,ifwearehonestwitheachotherwouldprobablyadmitwecouldhavedonebetter!Thepointhere?Seasonsdochangeandsodoesourcareerpath.Weareeitheraspiringornewadministrators,wellintoourcareersorclosetoretirement.But,regardlessofour seasonal place in time or where we find ourselves within the seasons themselves personally andprofessionally,wehavearesponsibilitytoplanttheseedsoflearning,andthennurture,cultivate,andsupportthegrowthofthechildrenweareprivilegedtoserve.Forus,it’sbacktoschoolandanewseasonburstingwithfreshopportunities.Let’sworktogetherthroughoutthe year with bold confidence and ensure that when the children we serve reflect on their seasons thebeautifulmemoriesandlearningcreatedforthemarebutforalifetime.Haveagreat2017-2018SchoolYear!Dr.RayMorgigno,President
