Lean On Me
Are you following the Brian Stone saga at An Audience of One? You should be. He just started a new job this week as the principal of an inner city middle school in Tulsa.
Want to know about my new school? All of the typical things you’d read about in an urban, high-challenge school. Poverty, gang culture, drugs, low test scores, family breakdown, etc. In other words, my kind of place. In spite of all that these are children and precious children at that. They have the same need for acceptance that their counterparts at a ritzy private school do. These kids have potential and need help to deliver on their abilities. There are huge changes coming to my school and I’m excited to be part of that change. I’ll write more on this later.
Also, check out another excellent recent Brian post: “Destiny.”
