Event Details

The principal cannot do everything. She can't be the all-knowing expert. He can't teach in class.  In many cases, the principal can't know all the students in their school.  And yet the principal is the PRINCIPAL Difference Maker in the school.  This two-part workshop will address the philosophies as well as practical strategies which will enable a school principal to effectively lead a school to excellence. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how they can play the following roles: Insulator - protecting a faculty from unnecessary stresses; Vision-caster - always keeping the big picture in the forefront; Compass - guiding schools on a journey to what matters most; Culture Warrior - building, creating, and maintaining a school culture; and Empowerer - fostering creativity, buy-in, and teacher leadership.  The presenter, Scott Habeeb, a practicing principal himself, will provide virtual coaching – offering feedback, strategies to deal with specific issues, and general support - to all participants during the six months between the two sessions.
