Secrets of A School Principal

Have you noticed how all of the main stream candidates have totally avoided the issue of education. They all speak of quality and the importance of having quality schools or school choice. Is there really a choice? We need to treat this the way we treated the challenge of putting a man on the moon in the 1960's. Let's set what appears to be an impossible task and work to achieve it. Schools need to outfit schools with the tools to compete in a flattened digital world in all classrooms. We need to embark on a major program to train all stafff on how to use those technologies. This is like puttting the wheels on a moving bus. It can be done. We can not afford to be complacement.Candidates need to committ to transforming our bricks and mortar schools to places where the best teachers and information is available to students and teachers from anywhere and anytime. The future depends on us changing now!
