Begin the year focused on building those relationships and establishing respect both ways. Students work harder for teachers they respect and know cares about them. Adults do too.

As the new school year kicks off remember that high achievement is usually attained in the context of high expectations. Admin, expect the best of your staff. Teachers, expect the best of your students. Then give your best to get their best!
