Leadership Belief: I believe in the power of collective efficacy which is the shared belief that together educators can positively influence student outcomes for Every Child, Every Day. My goal is to be a servant leader who is collaborative, passionate, knowledgeable, and influential by having a positive impact each day. Taking the time to listen and understand others will help us to determine equity actions that ensure each person feels seen, heard, valued, and respected. All students, especially students with disabilities, need servant leaders focused on meeting academic, social, emotional, and behavioral needs to achieve success.
My favorite quote from Maya Angelou is, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
