Attitude

The school year is upon us.  What is your attitude about it?  Can you change your attitude?  It's quite a question, isn't it?  Here is a blog post from Tim McDermott, a principal in my PLN.  Please take a moment to read his post.  Maybe this is a thought for later in the year, but maybe it isn't.  If we can think and take the time to change our attitude to something positive to start the year, it would be beneficial for our students, our colleagues, our Merton families, and our own families.  Are you up to the challenge?
