Chapter 1

Too Good to be True?

1. As an exemplary campus, Smithfield does a good job of educating students. What ways do you feel we can take our school from good to great?

2. Imagine you are the Patel family and are looking for a quality school in the area. What qualities do you consider a great school to possess?

*We have a great discussion going on here! These two questions are simply to get us started thinking about the chapter and relating it to our campus. I encourage you to share any additional questions over the chapter. :) I LOVE this book!!!

Welcome


Welcome to our first online book study! The book, The Leader in Me was chosen by our site-based committee in an effort to improve the quality of education our students receive at Smithfield Elementary. Courtney and I will be facilitating this book study as "Administrative Interns", however we would very much appreciate everyone posting questions so we are all able to grow and benefit from this experience. Greg will be tracking your participation as it will be counted as campus-based professional learning. Please post your reply to Chapter one by Monday, June 29nd. Happy reading!
