Game On! School Write - Part 2

In response to the post "The LYS Nation in the News,” on 11/4/2010, Dr. Stephen Wurtz writes:

Game On! is an incredible system designed by Sean Cain and the Lead Your School organization. I love the systematic approach to increasing student academic achievement while fostering character development and person responsibility.

Game On! has helped to foster a truly transparent environment where everyone understands their role on the team and how that role impacts the group as a whole. It has made a real difference in streamlining hard working teachers so that everyone's efforts are pointed in the same direction... toward achieving our school mission! I highly recommend it!!

Thanks for the kind words and you know that everyone on our side couldn’t be more excited for you and your kids! Your success makes it easier for other schools to embrace the changes that will benefit their students.

On an unrelated note, don’t forget if you are attending the Texas Charter School Conference on Tuesday, November 29, 2010, look me up. At 3:45 pm, I’ll be presenting on the first steps of school improvement. The session title is, “Broke to Better.”

You can also catch me on the TEPSA Webinar on Wednesday, November 30, 2010 at 11:00 AM (central time). The topic, “Effective Working Relationships: A Primer for Principals and Assistant Principals”

Some Game On! Schools Write - Part 1

In response to the newspaper article and video on the Game On! school (11/4/2010), the principals of some other Game On! schools write:

LYS Principal #1:

I just saw the video on Game On! with Wurtz. That is so cool. Congrats to the school and LYS.

LYS Principal #2

OMG - I am soooo excited. I am going to get the teachers to show this to all of our kids this so that they can see how HAIRGROVE STUDENTS changed another school all the way in Dallas. It will be a great motivator for them, too. The school and LYS should be so proud!!!

LYS Principal #3

Very cool! It is exciting to see Game On! taking off across the country. I can't wait for you come out again to see what we are doing at Rennell. Game On! is alive and well in Cypress-Fairbanks!

Think. Work. Achieve.
