An educationally focused school administrator has several roles and responsibilities in ensuring the management of an effective school. Schools were created to prepare students for the real world, and an effective administrator should have this vision in mind. Their vision should match the school and district mission statements. As a result, effective teachers and administrators will prepare a successful person for the world, especially in today's difficult economic times. An educationally focused administrator runs his or her school competently and with one goal in mind: for all students to succeed. There are several ways to ensure that all students gain knowledge and succeed. A focused administrator has some priorities and goals. I believe their first priority should be for every student in the classroom to learn and acquire the skills to be successful in life and in the classroom. I would like to ensure that effective learning occurs by researching what has worked for students in the past. One way to do this is to look at your results and see which classes you performed well in. If a student had an interest in art, then art could be a way to educate students in other classes. Students know how they learn best, and a good administrator will allow the teacher to continue using those teaching methods in their classrooms. However, if I noticed that a student was struggling with a lesson or concept, then I would offer some suggestions to that teacher to help them. Some suggestions might be something I've tried as a teacher or suggest a conference for that teacher to help them learn some strategies. Students learn through multiple modalities and these lectures… middle of the paper… the student learns in the classroom using many teaching strategies. My goal would be to help teachers experiment with teaching methods in the classroom. I realize this is not an easy task for students, teachers, and administrators with the numerous budget cuts schools and districts face. However, if every effort is made to ensure that students and teachers learn successfully, then I will be effective as an administrator. School administrators, teachers and students are the heart and soul of all schools. If a school does not have effective principals, teachers, students, and staff, the school is likely to fall apart. A good instructional leader provides direction and guidance to a school. An effective administrator is a visionary, a collaborator, an advocate, a facilitator, a role model, an innovator, a researcher, and a scholar.
