S1E28: Energy and Leadership: A Principal's Story
Description
Gone are the days when a trip to the principal’s office is a negative experience. At James B. Edwards Elementary School (JBE) in Mt. Pleasant, S.C., students LOVE to visit Principal Robin Fountain because she emanates joy and bursts with positive energy.
During this conversation, Robin and Ron learn not only that Robin Fountain’s superpower is being a good listener and building people and strong cultures, but that she is a lifelong learner, pivoting and redirecting when necessary, including the latest Orton Gillingham model being used to reach all learners at JBE.
From her first teaching experience in Glasgow, Scotland (I know, right?) to leading the JBE Egrets today, her journey is inspiring and uplifting (and how great that she has the privilege to determine the culture and the energy that permeates into each classroom at JBE).
The best part? Her leadership style is all about being “out there” with the kids. Now, THAT’S GREAT ENERGY!
