Digital Age Leadership

Castleberry ISD is in the midst of the fourth annual Digital Age Leadership Academy. I am blessed that I have had the opportunity to be a part of this adventure for all four years. As a current administrator approaching my 10th year as principal and 18th year as an educator with the district, I can honestly predict that these few days will be the most beneficial and growing experience of any other professional development I encounter for the entire school year. With the district focus on the "Growth Mindset", I am certain that our district will show substantial growth throughout the upcoming school year as well as years to come. I am also very excited that not only have we been introduced to new apps, such as Piktochart, but we have also revisited a couple of activities from last year that I needed to update / brush up on. I highly recommend Symbaloo as your "one stop headquarters" for all of your bookmarks and online favorites. Weebly is yet another "must have" resource to easily build a web site. I am looking very forward to the morning presentations of each group's selection of a curation tool. Do you have a favorite?
