Lessons That Endure
About this book
After two decades in public education as a teacher, Beth Plunkett served as a high school principal for 18 years. She culls from her experiences to share the lessons learned from mistakes and victories, family and colleagues, and how she used teachable moments to establish a community of trust. From the comical to the sorrowful, the scary to the inspiring, these are tales you just couldn't make up.
Through heartfelt stories and an administrator's eye, Beth shares:
- How little moments of support can build a foundation of trust;
- How core beliefs and values contribute to an enduring institution;
- How the mission of a school (or organization or company) succeeds only with authentic and coherent implementation;
- And how a commitment to mission and to one another breeds a resilient community.
If you are an educator, parent, or community leader, you can help build a community that sticks together, thrives, and lifts one another up by learning and applying the Lessons That Endure.
