  2. Book Review • Ahead of the Curve: The Power of Assessment to Transform Teaching and Learning • Edited By: Douglas Reeves • Monday Morning Leadership: 8 Mentoring Sessions You Can’t Afford to Miss • By: David Cottrell

  3. Ahead of the Curve • “There is a call for a redirection of assessment to its fundamental purpose: the improvement of student achievement, teaching practice, and leadership decision-making. The stakes could not be higher.” • Douglas Reeves

  4. Monday Morning Leadership • “A real Leader spends his time fixing the problem instead of finding who to blame.” • “So much of life is about attitude and how we handle what life throws our way. Life is good – even when a situation appears to be the worst.” • David Cottrell

  5. The Power of Assessment to Lead Assessment Leadership The quantitative grade a teacher gives a student can impact so many different aspects of not only the student’s life, but the teacher’s formal assessments as well. Leadership skills can be developed to create a positive community of learners within the school where the principal serves as the educational leader and takes responsibility as the manager of that school.
