Well Said

Part of being an educational leader is having the right words at hand. That’s never been an easy thing for me. I try to go overboard with thank you notes and happy birthday emails. Sometimes I come across things that I want to remember, small “well saids.” Here are two recently. The first is from Carol Jago, who had just finished – a couple hours previously – giving a talk to the Metro English Chair group of about 110 people. The second is from Sue L of the MEC steering committee, in response to Carol.

I really appreciate the invitation to be a part of your professional community. What a wonderful group of teachers you have gathered together!

Hi Carol.

We are the ones to thank you! As always, you brought energetic conversation that lasted long after the event ended! Thank you for bringing important ideas right to the forefront!

You truly are a teacher at heart, and that comes through every time we are together.
