When we can trust each other as a team, everything improves. Trust enables us to feel safe, to take risks and to solve issues. Together. Education, at it’s best, is a model of teamwork, bringing exponential blessings when we are raised to the “Power of Us”

In this episode of the Educators Among Us podcast, host Scott Barron, Chief Reinvention Officer with School Growth, emphasizes the significance of perspective and communication in education. He discusses how effective teamwork and a shared language can enhance school culture, foster trust, and lead to excellence in educational settings.

Barron highlights the need for educators to support one another and work collaboratively to create a positive impact on students and the overall learning environment.

When we operate as a team, working together toward common goals, then everything we accomplish, we do together. It’s not yours, and it’s not mine. It’s ours.
