I'm Committed To Supporting Our Public Schools!

We can create a new strategic plan every year but if we don’t know how to translate it to the community we’re missing the opportunity to activate ecosystems for change. Our schools have a story worth telling and when we share our stories it builds trust with students, faculty, stakeholders and partners.

We can’t afford to keep making quick decisions and dealing in secrecy if we want the community in the room so that we can make the right decisions. The silos must disappear and we have to build coalitions for an inter-generational approach.

We have to stop looking at the youth as future actors but as present contributing leaders, when we have inclusive leadership aligned it doesn’t show just in theory, it shows in operations and decision making! What if today when we returned home after work we received news that our trusted medical facility, favorite communal gathering space, the restaurant most frequented, athletic facility, your local library, arts co-op, mental health support venue and theater were all closed how would that make us feel as adults?

All of those resources I just mentioned are housed in the school for our youth, so when we close down a school we’re not just shutting down a place for academics we’re closing all the free vital support systems for young people! Tap in with me because like I always tell my siblings, many hands make light work!
