Leadership Philosophy:

• Since learning is a life-long process, we believe that the word “learner” applies to all parties involved in our school (i.e., principal, teachers, parents, students, and all other stakeholders).
• The school, as a “learning organization”, must promote reciprocity of information and facilitate a maximum flow of communication both outside and inside the building.
• As a result of seeing all parties involved in the educational process as learners, each of them must be viewed differently; the student is viewed as a client and customer rather than a product, the teacher is seen as an innovator and initiator rather than a production unit, and the administrator is viewed as an organizational leader rather than a production manager.
• Like any other organization, the school needs to maintain the balance between the individuals’ views, needs, and preferences and its institutional expectations.
• A true leader is the one who influences others, motivates them, utilizes their strengths, and inspires them to lead. In order for that to happen, the instructional leader has a responsibility to develop the individuals he/she is leading. The first step for the instructional leader is to be a role model. He/she must have complete congruence between what he/she values and what he/she does.
• It is the responsibility of the instructional leader to secure maximum learning chances for all the parties involved in the educational process, including him/herself. This is more likely to occur when the school becomes a true learning organization in which everyone is sharing and enjoying an incessant flow of learning.
