Leading a school isn’t for the weak-hearted. It’s messy, it’s hard, and sometimes it feels like you're juggling flaming swords while riding a unicycle. But GOOD leadership is actually the key to unlocking the student-centered classrooms we dream about! In this episode, I sit down with the powerhouse Principal Chanavia Patterson to talk about what it really means to lead schools that center students, empower teachers, and create spaces where everyone can thrive (yes, even on a Monday morning).
