Welcome Back Russell!!!! I’ve outlined all of our opening day themes in this document. Please take the time to review and reflect on each one of these as we move into the New Year. I truly appreciate the hard work and effort from everyone in our district that continues to work hard for OUR kids each and every day. If my office can be of assistance to you, please let me know. Happy New Year! Go Devils! RIS Mission: Our mission is to inspire and empower all students to reach their maximum potential: one student, one lesson, one day at a time. Things I CAN Control…
Continue to focus on the RIS four core beliefs: It’s about Kids! —Accountability—Transparency—Communication. 1.You don’t look at the clock, and you’re not punching a time card. Your role is not defined by time. 2. You get it done no matter how long it takes. You are “managerless,” meaning no one else has to worry about whether you are getting it done. 3. You realize you are part of something bigger than yourself, and humbly accomplish the goals because of a larger motivation than just you. 4. Giving just the “minimum” amount of effort required to get by without “getting in trouble” doesn’t even cross your mind. 5. Your hard work and excellence is done with pure motives. You are not worried about climbing the ladder or impressing anyone. 6. "We" is much more important than "me." If I win, the team wins. If the team wins, I win. 7. You are willing and motivated to improve daily. Getting better at what you do is not a choice, it’s a requirement. 8. You maintain a high standard of excellence because the team/organization/brand demands it. You don’t want to let anyone else down on the team. 9. The vision compels you to greatness. Not the opposite—“your greatness compelling the vision.” Many leaders get this backwards. 10. Your intentions and goals are clear. I know what I’m getting, and I’m never concerned about any ulterior motives. 11. You are trustworthy. 100 percent. Always, with no exceptions. I know I can count on you. 12. Constant pursuit of the extraordinary, not ordinary. Constant pursuit of unusual, not usual. Constant pursuit of being the best, not average. “Opening day 2017”----“Row the Boat” philosophy by University of Minnesota Head Football coach---PJ Fleck Take the time to watch and review this… What’s happening at central office / district this week?
