Deep Thoughts & Nonsense from the Principal


This is often what it looks like when I am deep in thought or on occasion thinking about lunch.  My deep thought currently is how important the student-teacher relationship is, it has become increasingly clear in 21+ years in education that the teachers whose students are both academically and socially successful have stronger bonds with the teachers whom they work with.  In fact there is research that supports this very fact.  John Hattie has done Meta-Analysis on what effect different practices have on student achievement.  Follow the link below for more in-depth information.
