Inspired Principal


Inspired Principal (n.) – A school leader who values children's intellects as much as their imaginations and supports and respects the vital role every adult in the building plays in ensuring that every student in the school reaches his or her full potential.



"I have been blessed to have Inspired Teaching at the school. I would not be able to do the crucial work of raising student achievement without the aid of a program with high caliber experts."
~Michelle Farid, former principal at Tyler Elementary

"I don't have an administrative team, and Inspired Teaching serves as a non-biased entity to help me think about how to continuously improve the school and be supportive to the teachers."
~ Michelle Edwards, principal at Orr Elementary
