New Principal

I met today officially for the first time with Wesley Schrock, our principal for next year. Here are some of my impressions:

1. This man is not easily fazed. He's already familiar with many of the things that can go wrong in school administration and teaching, and he's not overwhelmed by any of them.

2. He is good at identifying a logical course of action and following through on it.

3. He asks good questions.

4. He is a reasonable man.

5. Making waves is not his modus operandi.

6. Having him on staff will be a blessing for us all.

After today, my anticipation of the coming school year has ramped up one more notch. This is going to be good. . . .
