There are 1,641 e-mail subscribers. Thank you!
There are now international readers and e-mail subscribers,
with the following 38 countries represented: Australia, Bangladesh, Belarus,
Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Cayman Islands, Chile, China, Egypt, France, Germany,
Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Japan,
Macedonia, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Russian
Federation, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United
States, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Venezuela
All of this is incredibly exciting; especially when you
consider that not too long ago, every number was 0.
A Little Blatant Self
Promotion:
First, if you like the blog and you haven’t signed up for
the e-mail subscription, please do so.
I find that it’s easier to write to people than it is to write to web
hits.
Second, if you like the blog and find it useful, tell three
other people. This blog is a much
more powerful resource for school improvement when it is a dialogue.
Third, if you have not sent in a comment yet, please do
so. Education research points out
that the act of critical writing actually makes the learner smarter. Let the blog assist you in sharpening
your saw.
Finally:
Thank you so much for reading and responding. This network, which started out as a
way for just a handful of principals to stay connected has turned into a small
nation of board members, central office administrators, campus leaders, and
teachers who are focused on redefining what students are capable of. Who knows what we will discuss in the
next 100 posts.
Think. Work. Achieve.
