The most important thing I've learned
"The most important thing I've learned about working with my school administrators in the past term/year is that they truly are on my side. My first job as a teacher just happened to be at one of the best schools in the Muscogee County School District. I feel very fortunate to be at Northside and to have the administrative staff that we do. They believe in you as a person and an instructor. They also feel the same way about our students. I, like a lot of first year teachers didn’t have a clue what the administrative staff did. Shortly after being there I came to realize they have way more on their plate than appears. Not a week goes by that someone from the administrative team doesn’t stop in and ask if everything is going well and if they could do anything to help.
You are lucky to be at a great school. I have enjoyed talking with some of the coaches from Northside, and they all love the school. To work with positive administrators is a plus, and makes your job easier. Good luck and I am glad you have the support behind you.
