Even an old administrator can learn new tricks ...

Every year, I am required to develop a professional learning goal for myself. This year, since I am working with the freshman class and this is where we are piloting our BYOD initiative, I thought it wise to start thinking seriously about HOW teachers can enhance and personalize instruction for all students and HOW student learning can be elevated.

To ensure that I am headed in the right direction, that I can actually support and guide teachers, I have enlisted the services of Techxpert Spencer Reeves, who will serve this year as my mentor.

I hope he has patience ...

It's the end of July ... I'm back from my vacation ... at least, the Yankees are doing well!

My First Blog Post

This is my inaugural posting ... I've finally joined the blogosphere!

The summer here at NCHS is uncomfortably quiet ... statistics, reports, organizing for the new school year. I am looking forward to working with two classes this coming year: the seniors and the freshmen. I have truly enjoyed working with the Class of 2016 over these past three years, getting to know many of them personally and marveling at their achievements and accomplishments. With the Class of 2019, this will be an exciting and challenging year and I hope to be there for each of you.

In the meantime, everyone should have fun this summer, read something solely for pleasure and RELAX. See you soon
