A Ride to School With the Vice Principal

Written by Abigail Smurr, Ed.D.

About This Book

The weekday work grind is real. As a vice principal of an elementary school, the day carries many duties, deadlines, and is constantly busy. Yet, the vice principal starts her day doing what she loves, cycling. No matter what the weather is or what the day holds, you will see Miss Smurr pedaling to work. A Ride to School With the Vice Principal offers a look into a leader's routine and life, showing that small choices lead to a greater impact. It focuses on how to prepare to ride your bike, how to use technology for safety while biking, and encourages readers that a vice principal is more than her role, she is also a human modeling her daily life. El ajetreo laboral de entre semana es muy real. Como subdirectora de una escuela primaria, el día está lleno de numerosas responsabilidades, plazos y una actividad constante. Sin embargo, la subdirectora comienza su día haciendo lo que ama: andar en bicicleta. Sin importar el clima o lo que depare la jornada, verás a la señorita Smurr pedaleando hacia el trabajo. Un paseo a la escuela con la subdirectora ofrece una mirada a la rutina y la vida de una líder, mostrando que las pequeñas decisiones conducen a un impacto mayor. Se centra en cómo prepararse para andar en bicicleta, cómo utilizar la tecnología para la seguridad al pedalear y anima a los lectores a entender que una subdirectora es más que su rol; también es una persona que da ejemplo con su vida cotidiana.
