Top on the pile this week was Edutopia (one of my favorites). In the monthly feature, Sage Advice, the question put to readers was, “What would you teach a teacher?”

The first two responses (both from New Yorkers, BTW) are:

  1. Realize you are in the people business! (Dan Murray, Principal, Wheatland-Chili Middle School)
  2. Never stop learning. (Kristen Montgomery, English Teacher, Canajoharie High School)

There it is again – my mantra – A School is People Learning. The other responses were excellent as well – its just that the first two rang especially true for me.
