If I were principal for a day: I would first establish a procedure for food delivery services as an incentive for positive behavior (example DoorDash). Second, I would overhaul the PBIS system so the currency of PBIS points is not inflated by teacher’s choice and distribution quotas, but instead by measurable goals and successes.
Favorite school memory: An elephant ride during the 3rd-grade circus trip.
People who have been an inspiration to me: Ms. Mount, Ms. Yvette, and Gibbs from NCIS.
Lately, I’ve been reading: The American Pageant.
My advice to parents: Encourage your child to try new things and foster any passions, however remote; this includes sushi sales and food truck dreams.
My biggest regret: Being too afraid to make changes in the lives of myself and those around me.
Where I see myself in 5 years: I will have graduated from college with a certified public accountant license and the beginning of a restaurant empire.

If I were principal for a day: I wouldn’t have school.

My advice to parents: Act like you want your kids to act and be a good role model. Also, support your kids in whatever they do.
