The Power Dynamic At Your School Site
The power dynamic at my school is one that is very strong and very positive. As my school just opened for the first time this school year (2011-2012), our administration, teachers and staff are constantly giving more than a 100% to make sure we succeed this year academically. Our teachers are always willing and able to contribute their time and efforts after school or before school without asking anything in return. Parents are also on board with the school ensuring that the teachers and administration have what they need to have a successful school year. We are all in it together and our passion to teach, to succeed and to have a great school at the end of the day is what keeps us strong and drives the positive energy and power you feel in the school on a day to day basis. As the administrator recognizes how we all feel like a family fighting for a common goal; it then uses this to determine who stays or who goes in our teachers and staff. This allows administration to dismiss any member of the team who does not want to share these goals and the passion that the rest of the staff has.

I am sure it is a great feeling to be a part of such a ground breaking experience, the first school year!
ReplyDeleteIt is good to hear that you all are working together to teach the students. The parental involvement is an asset to both the teachers and the administration at your school. I am a testament that if the parents are involved the students are more involved in the classroom.
It is awesome to hear what a great team you are. When people are able to work together for a common goal the results are always more positive. I also think it is wonderful that the parents are so supportive. When parents support you in your daily work it makes teaching so much easier. When the whole school community comes together for a common goal it benefits the children in ways that nothing else can.
