Your words and website have been a wonderful blessing for myself and coworkers to keep our heads up and hearts in the right places these last two years as we experience more demands with less resources and support. Thank you for being part of the reason I didn't give up on teaching last year.

Paul JacksonPaul retired in 1998 after a teaching career including 20 years as a classroom teacher and 12 years as an Elementary School Principal.
Paul's interest in the teaching/learning process led him to share his love of learning through teacher-focused workshops both locally and internationally. Among his topics: Stress Management – A Personal Look; A Little R and R for the Soul – Reflection and Reflection; Burners and Blisters Go Together – When Helping Hurts (Enabling); Your Dreams Can Come True; It Can Happen to You. His philosophy of "Helping people help themselves" revolves around the concept that "without reflection, experience is not cumulative".
Paul recognized that in order to have an impact as a Principal on each and every one of the students in the school he must have an impact on the teachers. To attain that goal he devoted himself to training school administrators in the supervision and evaluation process.
