Dr. Crystal Bush

What a great week learning and getting to know about Springridge! This lady y’all, what a great mentor and coach!! @klkprincipal @sre_pta

It takes time to become a highly effective teacher. It also takes time to become a highly effective leader. Both need patience, support, encouragement, praise and effective mentoring. With focus on maximizing strengths, which is growth mindset!

@sre_pta dropping by to let you know I sure do miss those eagles of mine! Once an eagle always an eagle all my heart and love, Dr. Bush

Leaders, don’t just remember what it was like as a teacher, but remember what you wish your admin had been like. * check in with staff * ask how they’re doing * ask how you can help * listen * support appreciate encourage * roll up sleeves & help them

As the new year begins, remember we often hire teachers based on their strengths, but manage them based on their weaknesses. This is often how we teach as well. Let's focus more on strength building so everyone can maximize their potential.

Admin, treat your teachers and staff in such a way that you are one of the reasons they would never want to leave.
