Building Administrator of the Year

The administrator is comfortable accepting challenges that will aid their growth as an administrator. When requested to complete a task, I can always trust and have the assurance that they will deliver. They are well-organized and continue to lead with a "flavor" that positively contributes to our culture. They are a pleasure to work with. 

The administrator models our vision and mission for constituents. They look for opportunities to celebrate the success of our staff/students. They hold high expectations for our constituents and  or themself as well. They continue to encourage colleagues to stretch their thinking regarding concepts that may result in status-quo approaches. As a knowledgeable worker, they pursue professional development opportunities to increase their skill set and fill knowledge gaps. The Administrator also prompts intellectual stimulation by reading and sharing articles that may positively contribute to the success of the school holistically. They are able to relate to our students!  They pursue positive interactions with the students and their families! The administrator is strong with community connections - understanding what kids are interested in or where they have come from, while relating these concepts to school-based matters, thus prompting understanding and relatability. 

This administrator is a hard worker, and juggles multiple tasks; yet delivers accurately. They also demonstrate an ability to engage in knowledge transfer with their colleagues. I appreciate this about them because they are neither afraid to try something new nor reluctant to share her knowledge with others. This is a relation-oriented strength that will continue to lead them down a path of success!
