My Project

These are the books I will be reading to help me expand my knowledge to better serve my young learners. I believe these books will provide powerful insights to guide me to be a better leader at my school. I will be using these books to have discussion with other leaders and create a plan to make improvements at our school to better serve each and every students that I teach daily.

From understanding about equity to transformation school culture, these books will provide me with necessary strategies to tackle and provide support my students days in and days out.

Knowledge is information that I can use to provide necessary changes to better serve our young leaders and these books will give me those knowledge and information.
