The first thing I noticed is that women were the main contributors in this school. There are a few good men leaders, but for some reason, when women are in charge - shift happens.

I enjoyed this video. Clearly this principal supports her staff, and that's where it all begins. As a history teacher, I do get a little bothered when math and science get all of the attention. In our district, we are constantly denied resources because we are not "math and science" and our "test scores are good. I caution any program that doesn't respect all of the disciplines.

I thought the video was awesome. I am learning about Professional Learning Communities, and I think showing how everyone works together to produce the success that I viewed from the video would be convincing to others,

That was a very nice video. I am a teacher at Cambridge High School Jordan.
We joined the Global Buddies Project this year with Mrs. Richards. We had lots of fun, it was such an experience.
A small comment is that the classroom level in Jordan was 3rd grade. As well as we will be happy if you mention our school name. Thank you somuch
