The set up this school has is incredible. The support and devotion to creating a positive, professional, and collaborative environment for all the staff and students makes me wonder why more school do not take this type of approach. It is so valuable learning from others. The way the administration helps to encourage professionalism within the school, makes me appreciate those schools I have taught in where you were supported by your administrators and encouraged to seek out answers, as opposed to being told what you are doing wrong and never given the chance to find out how to improve it. I do wonder like Charity asked how this school handles NCLB and if they are still able to maintain this approach.
