Welcome to the new site!
One thing I’ve always wanted to do was portray a really honest perspective on this blog and on my career. As I’ve entered this new journey of being a Principal/Lead Learner I’ve tried really showing my journey. What I’ve failed to show though, is the struggles. You see, I absolutely love my job. I haven’t…
Here is my second entry in my weekly foray of recognizing the amazing people that I get to work with every day. This week I waned to introduce you to Kevin Bradford. Throughout my interviewing process and hiring of 36 different employees there are few that stand out as much as Kevin Bradford. Kevin has…
Well I did it! I made it through my first week of school as an administrator! And what a week it was! I think the biggest take-away for me was how much my daily routine has changed. As a classroom teacher there was some sort of daily routine that I would sink into. I knew…
As I’ve been on my journey at Navasota Intermediate, one thing has been glaringly clear; I have the best team in the entire world. Period. One conscious thing I want to do, is once a week feature someone from my staff and tell you a little bit about them. This week I wanted to introduce…
As a classroom teacher, sometimes I didn’t feel like I was heard or even noticed by my administration on my campus. And it’s not that they weren’t a great administration. They WERE! But they got so busy, sometimes I felt forgotten. As an administrator myself now, I wanted to make sure I never made my…
We made it through our first day of school at Navasota Intermediate! Wow what an experience and thrill that was. Just like when I was a classroom teacher, I could hardly sleep at all the night before. I was excited beyond belief but also a little terrified. This was my first year as a principal…
Well the day finally arrived! Last night, we were FINALLY able to meet the students and families who would be a part of our group this year! To say it was amazing, is an understatement. The hours before meet the teacher were insanity. It was all getting the campus completely ready to welcome our families….
Before writing this post I really had to sit back and digest what took place yesterday. But first let me start with a little backstory. I was hired for my new position back in March. Soon after getting hired, the discussion began about a keynote for Navasota ISD’s annual Symposium (it’s a 2 and 1/2…
This past Saturday, I got to take part in my first every community walk! Last year Navasota ISD did it for the first time, so this was their second year of trying this out. What happens on a community walk? Well staff members from each campus meet at the Administration building at 10am on a…
This year, at my new campus, we’re becoming a #YouMatter school. Every single part of our school is going to really focus on reminding every student, parent, and warm body that enters our building that they matter. We want you to leave feeling more loved then when you came in. One way hat we’re doing…
Last week I wrote this post about planning our first ever “Business/Community Open House” at the school I’m now Principal of, Navasota Intermediate. Well yesterday was the day! We passed out over 150 postcards to local businesses inviting them to come walk the halls of our school and hear our vision for a new school…
As a new principal, one of the things I really wanted to focus on, was involving the entire community in helping our campus succeed. One of the ideas that I had was to have a Business/Community Open House before school started. One where we invite the business owners in town to come tour the campus,…
