“I agree with Parker: Messaging matters. As a leader, if you want to turn your community members into 'raving fans' of your school’s success, you need to control the narrative. What you focus on will become your reality. Spend time with teachers and students in their learning environment, and you will be rewarded with good news to share with others about your school community.”
