Beginning and Supporting

Educators are beginning new school years. I love that time of beginnings—a blank slate of a school year, new students, new learning for all, new possibilities. Some educators are beginning their careers or considering career changes or retirement. Our possibilities for making a difference in the lives of others never ends even though those possibilities look different at different stages of our lives and careers.  Women educators give and give to their students and schools. Don’t forget to give support to each other—and just as important, accept support offered to you. When someone accepts an offer of assistance or hears someone else’s recommendations, the giver and the recipient are valued. Please know that you are valued and that YOU give value. Know that your actions and reactions change your students, your colleagues, and your DKG chapter.
