Emily Paschall, author of Eyes on Culture: Multiply Excellence in Your School, brought an unforgettable spark to our annual All-Staff event last week! 👏💛
Her insight into school culture, leadership, and belief in the power of educators had us reflecting, laughing, and dreaming bigger for our students. She challenged us to raise the bar—not just for others, but for ourselves—and left us charged up for the year ahead. 👊💥
