If schools are to
be successful with induction, change is imminent. This section is meant
to help you step out of your school to objectively assess your school
culture and begin thinking about ways to lead change.
Questions to guide your thinking
include:
- Are there high standards
of professionalism within the culture of my building?
- Can everyone in my school
community articulate our school vision?
- No principal can do everything
alone. What are some important attributes of our community for
building leadership capacity?
- What are some of the unique
qualities about the new generation of teacher candidates?
