The teachers I'm working with left comfortable positions to work in this school. That's what this is for me, a chance to work with a group of people who reject settling, reject complacency, who want to make a place that we can modify from year to year, try things we never dreamed of. That's what this is for me, a chance to work with people willing to do whatever it takes to educate children. Look, change is hard. It's not always rewarded.
People are afraid of change.
I don't know. Changing a system means you have to change something about yourself. It's not just how you do things, but how you think. And, God, that has to affect other things in your life. You change how you think about yourself and your life.
