that she could do it better was what was on their minds, so nothing I did was good
enough for them. This was a struggle for about the first year, but I just focused on
everything else except that.
The second struggle has been the transition this past year with a new Freshman Academy
principal. She has not been the supportive administrator that my former one has been, but
I am also aware that change is difficult for all involved.
c. Given the chance to do it again, how would you do it better?
If I were to go through this again, the first thing I would do differently is meet with those
to teachers who disapproved of my role and talk through their concerns because we
should all be professional adults. Communication is key to working through any issue
because at the end of the day, their issue was not with me specifically because I was
asked to be in that position. Their issue was more the fact that the administration asked
me and not the other person- not my decision. Secondly, I would be more open-minded
and not compare the new principal to the other principal because it is not her fault that
she is not like the former. There is a lot that I would do differently; however, the
experience was great overall. I realize that I cannot expect perfection from myself or
others, but I can communicate effectively and lead by example!
