Rethinking Teacher Leadership

Ashley Lamb-Sinclair wrote a wonderful article on the essence of teacher leadership. I truly concur with her sentiments and wanted to share this article with you.

The truth is that the art of teaching is often out of our control.  We want to control it so badly with titles and roles and promotions and plans, but we never will be able to find a formula that solves all the problems.  But if there’s anything close to a formula, it is in the hands of the lone teacher–the one loud enough, bold enough, strong enough, and willing enough to embrace the role of a true teacher leader.  Someone who wants to lead from within, not seek an identity from without.”
