This October is National #Principals Month, and we're marking it with a free, virtual summit built entirely around the job of leading a school.
No fluff, no theory. Just honest conversations.

Today, students had the opportunity to practice perspective-taking by guessing someone’s else’s point of view! When we take time to understand other people’s points of view we are showing RESPECT! ☺️👏🏽 @Counseling_AISD @CharacterStrong @Carter_AISD #Team3 #aldinestory

So excited that we had our @DawsonDolphins Back-to-School assembly & incorporated our @CharacterStrong Kindness Kick-off launch….another example of how we’re Swimming Together, Growing as One! 🐬

RESPECT is treating others with kindness, listening, being helpful, showing empathy…and the list goes on. These students were “caught” being respectful! So of course I had to celebrate them. 👏🏽☺️@CharacterStrong @Carter_AISD @Counseling_AISD #Aldinestory

Our first assembly was a wild success! Introducing our first @CharacterStrong trait of the year, Respect, by playing games that earned points for respectful behavior on the court and in the stands. We celebrated our student's artwork that made this year's planners. Great week!
