It’s been almost three months since my first Blog post went up.  Writing comes with the territory of being a Head of School:   Blog posts, speeches, Open House presentations, misplaced Christmas concert concluding thoughts, etc.  And although over the years it has gotten easier with practice, like all things, it is never simple.  I took a few minutes today to review the eighteen blogs I’ve written since September 22:

• Becoming a Blogger
• Things You Can’t Control
• Summer Reading
• Auditions and Tryouts
• Are You Kidding Me?
• It Has to Start Somewhere
• Tradition and Memories
• Being Stuck
• Survey Says…
• Report Cards Used to Say What?
• The Power of the Jelly Bean
• Remember
• When Winning Doesn’t Matter
• Thanking Others
• Being an Educator is Much More Than A Job
• Establishing Positive Habits
• World War II on Twitter
• Give Your Kids a Chance to Explain

The topics have been wide-ranging, hopefully thought-provoking and/or interesting, while some may just bring a smile.  It’s pleasing to see that we now have approximately 40 people following our Blog.  Thanks for signing up.  My next Blog post won’t be until January.  Until then, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a safe holiday with your families.
