Gratitude

This year it has been a new requirement for administration to have “conversations” with teachers. What an odd request? We talk all the time. But these conversations were different. It has been an opportunity to pause the craziness and talk. Even though we have an objective to meet, these conversations have opened up so much more.

For me it has been an opportunity to ask questions, and to listen; to see where I can help and to show my teachers how much I appreciate them. Jon Gordon states in his newsletter this week, “Gratitude and appreciation are also essential for a healthy work environment. A simple thank you and a show of appreciation can make all the difference.”

For all the teachers out there:
