Michigan School Principal’s Week
February 14, 2010
Principal’s Week is dedicated to recognizing the significant contributions of Michigan’s Elementary Middle and High School principals and the dedication they have for providing quality educational experiences and guidance to their students.
Together, teachers and principals strive to create a conducive environment for students to learn and strive to encourage students to continue to learn as it is a lifelong process.
Though change may be uncomfortable, principals have recognized that it is essential for growth as the use of technology is a driving global focus in communication and information.
Child advocacy is within the role of the educator, and principals act as the liaison
between the school and the community to ensure that the school’s undertakings and achievements are recognized.
Principals work to provide a positive support system to empower their students and to give them the right tools they need to succeed.
Governor Jennifer M. Granholm has proclaimed February 14, 2010, Principal’s Week in Michigan. Marquette Area Public School’s Board of Education encourages all citizens to support the efforts of school principals in their communities.
