My Letter For A Vice Principal

Dewey Dell Bundren, the only daughter of the Bundren family, represents a combination of innocence, vulnerability, and resilience. Her family embarks on a taxing journey to bury her mother, and she struggles to resolve the consequences of her life-long actions. When her mother dies, Dewey Dell is almost immediately expected to embody the new motherly figure and “get supper on” for the family. However, Dewey Dell “does not move” initially because she is still processing the loss of her only female influence. Dewey Dell’s reluctance to move illustrates that in a very real sense, she is just a seventeen-year-old girl and still very much needs her mother at a time like this.

When Miss Narwin kept getting hate letters, she told the assistant principal, Dr.Palleni, and the principal, Dr.Doan, that they should not have suspended him. The next reason Miss Narwin should have left her job is that the hate would never stop. On page

“Leaders don 't create followers, they create more leaders,” Tom Peter famously proclaimed. As the principal of Crestview Elementary, I have always taken this quote to heart by continuous striving to empower my faculty and staff. Most recently, I have decided to train my assistant principal, Kathy Robinson, who was appointed to her position this summer after ten years as a classroom teacher. I quickly recognized that she possessed many of the qualities that make great leaders. Kathy is an excellent communicator, a great problem solver, innovative, very personable, and cares about the students and staff (Sheninger, 2011). Therefore, I have decided to mentor her and hone her skills so that she will be prepared for a transition to the role of principal.

Nathan Etter, a music teacher at Prairie View Grade School location in Burlington, Illinois, received flowers from his husband, Philip Etter, on Valentine’s Day. The teachers’ students asked who the flowers were from and Nathan honestly answered, stating they were from his husband. Several students reacted with negative comments, for example, eww and gross. Nathan used this situation as a teachable moment, where he explained that individuals should be respectful of other individuals’ choices and that several families have two moms or two dads. Unfortunately, one student’s parents contacted the school regarding the situation, stating they had some serious concerns. After the family spoke with the principal, they were reassured Nathan wasn’t

This is an excellent example of when the pressure of meeting our mothers’ expectations do more harm than good to -us- their children. It ended up shaping the narrator’s career, leading to more misery than

The author’s tone is soft and direct to have the audience read with a concerning ease. The author wants to be perceived just like everyone else, but most importantly like every other parent. The author’s mood is very emotional and it is a mood that fluctuates with

I am writing to inform you that I am resigning form the position of Vice President of the Middle School Student Council. I will not be attending Crescent Middle School next semester. However, I am staying within the Crescent community. If the Student Council needs help or support, I will be able to assist.

Sewing my granddaughter's birthday dress, I was fretting over the perfect fabrics, questioning the oversized silk bloom that was to be pinned to the front of the bodice, all the while thinking, surely no two-year-old is going to run around with this monstrosity hanging from the front of her but in the end, opting to keep it because it was, in fact, adorable. I made coffee, took my dog out, said hello to the neighbor, and then Paris...

I hope this message finds you in good spirit. Dean Dalebout suggested I reach out to you regarding my interest in exploring avenues to serve the people of Michigan.

As I am walking down the hall to Ms.Johnson’s room, I see something different. There is a sub today. I just really hope she isn’t as mean as she looks. When I walk into the classroom I get my folder and go to my assigned seat to start my “do now”. When the teacher walks in she says,”Everyone sit down and don’t make a noise unless you want a step!”

Please accept this letter and the accompanying materials in application for the Assistant Principal position at Thornton High School. Through my research of your school, I was impressed by its historic track record of success and the current opportunity to help students with the greatest needs.

In this essay I will be comparing “She,” by Matthew Brooks Treacy and the relationship with his mother to my relationship with my father, and the lessons taught through experiences that occurred. My father taught the concept of moral obligation, in a similar fashion to Traecy’s mother teaching him to use his hands, through errands, that influenced my decision to make ethical decisions throughout my life.

Cortez) if she thought he would, because she had also met with the parents before, so she knew of him. Come to find out, Mrs. Cortez was the father’s ESOL teacher years ago at Statesboro High School. She knew him better than I thought. During the process on a one on one interview with Luis Nava, my student’s father, Luis and I sat in my conference room at the school where I teach. He showed very much emotion when telling his story. It was a very humbling experience to here and watch someone tell a story first hand or something that I personally, had ever heard on movies. As he continued to talk, I couldn’t help but think of Nathan, (my student, his son) and how I had treated him as teacher. Had I been as welcoming as I could to my classroom? Had I showed understanding when he didn’t seem to understand? Questions began to overwhelm me as I thought of how I present myself as a teacher, educator, and friend to all of my students that are from a different culture than

In school today, I hoped to go to June T and apologize to her for how I acted. Things looked fine and I could see June T in her desk, ready for the school day. I was walking up to her until I was stopped by 3 kids. The shortest of the 3 had come up to me and sneered, “Well, if it isn’t June the fool.”
