ALT "Everyone has a superpower. It might be making amazing slide decks. It could be the way you give your full attention to others. Maybe it’s the way you smile and greet people. Perhaps it's the way you make others' visions come to life. We all have gifts. Never diminish yours!" —Leader Sarah Sirgo
ALT "Here’s a message I share to empower educators: One of the best leaders I’ve ever met ran the custodial team at an elementary school. The other was a paraeducator in a third grade classroom. Look around you. Leadership is not in the title, but in the way the space transforms in your presence. Be the leader you already are today!" ––Leader Sarah Sirgo
ALT "One lesson I learned in my first year of leadership that's still central to my practice today: Always tell people when you get it wrong. Never be too proud to say, 'I was shortsighted,' 'I misunderstood' or 'I didn’t have the full picture.' Be brave enough to lead, but never too afraid to try again." —Leader Sarah Sirgo

ALT "Had a tough week? Remind yourself: There are only 60 minutes in the darkest hour and you don’t have to fix big problems or make big decisions when you are feeling big emotions. Most of all – give yourself grace. Leadership is a learning curve and tough weeks happen to every great leader. Learn from the moment and move forward. Say sorry, find a small win, vent to a friend. A hard week does not define you!" —Leader Sarah Sirgo

ALT "When it comes to family engagement, make sure you listen to all perspectives – the PTA, active volunteers AND those who don’t engage in traditional ways. Ask them 1. What do we do well? 2. What could we do better? 3. What are your dreams for your child’s school experience?" —Leader Sarah Sirgo
