Advice to a principal...

This is just an awesome twitter thread George Couros started by asking a simple question:

If you could give one piece of advice to a principal, what would you share?

The big takeaways are be visible, support teachers (which means sometimes get out of their way while other times coach them), listen for understanding (and not just to respond), know your students (and teachers), and most importantly relationships are the bedrock of a school.

I can see myself going back to this thread if I need some reenergizing.
