Principal’s Prose
Greetings Lions,
I hope you all had a restful weekend, as sometimes four day work weeks can seem to be the longest and most exhausting! If you've noticed, I've frequently refer to our staff as a team. This is Intentional, as I believe we are our best when we are all working together. With lots of ups and downs behind us in our rear view, and exciting plans for what’s to come, we must continue to stand united as a team with the shared mission of giving our students OUR very best!
Though we all play unique roles, , each team member's assignment is as significant to the ultimate victory of student achievement. Success is our mission, and in our very first year it must shape our legacy, image and first impression as Sudie TAG: the BEST school in Dallas!
Lastly Team, as we have been focused on intense progress monitoring, I challenge us all to look at these practices through a different lens. Think of progress monitoring as the "scoreboard" for the team of scholars that you coach. The scoreboard displays the reality of what's happening, and implies the needed urgency required to successfully strategize for victory. The scoreboard keeps us focused and gifts us the facts about how our measures are working, or not! Though we may be ahead or behind at a certain point, remember that it is the FINAL score that determines success or failure...and failure is not an option!
Lions, just know that our overall "A" game can only be achieved when we are the best team we can be...and the proof will be on the scoreboard for all to see!
Make it a great week Team,
MJ
