Our Narrative

This week we have been reflecting on the value of the narrative. On the first day of the formation of our team, we were nervous about the how we would be able to work together. We brought our own perceptions of what our own personal successes would look like.

Bob entered the year as a second year VP hoping to apply lessons from the very steep learning curve of the first year. He wanted a consistency of experience; to turn the previous year’s hard lessons into a consistent style. In addition, he wanted to assert some of his own ideas and passions into the culture of the school.

Bal entered this year as a fifth year VP looking for the nurturing and supportive environment he had seen the previous year. His understanding of his role has evolved over the years into one of reflection about empathy and care for students. His goal was to develop an underlying consistency that can be applied to all aspects of his leadership style.

Rex entered the year with a vision of leadership and a host of experiences in many schools in many roles. These experiences included being part of various leadership styles in great schools. He believed that the building of a great school uses relationships as the keystones. He looked forward to experiencing first-hand the life and culture of Sullivan Heights.

We are now a month into the school year and we believe that we can achieve our goals while working together as a team. Underlying our shared vision is our belief that all teachers inherently want to be the best that they can be. In the coming year, we look forward to playing a role in helping our teachers own their own development. We anticipate great things as we help contribute to the narrative of Sullivan Heights.
