Shared PD Day (DISTRICT)

Today we had a PD day shared with Iowa Valley and English Valley teachers.  Our guest speaker was Jimmy Casas, Secondary Principal at Bettendorf High School and the 2012 Iowa Secondary Principal of the Year.  We were given a challenge to inspire students and build relationships on a daily basis. Jimmy was very honest and forthright in telling us, as leaders and educators, that we have to take on the responsibility to touch the lives of every student and staff member. I especially was impressed with Jimmy's positive attitude as a great leader and his comment that we are all leaders and we should not to let others bring us down when we also inspire to be great.
