“The meaning of trust..."

Good morning!

I hope that you are enjoying your Sunday with a little sunshine and not the scattered rain that we had on Saturday. Hopeful that all those that have crops have everything out and those that have livestock have them closer to home. I know Dad was getting that all done while he could. Big THANK YOU to all of those that came to SRC for our Veteran's Day Program and thank you to all of those behind the scenes that put together a great program. Great job to all of our student singers and instrumentalist who sounded amazing! Lastly, thank you to all of our veterans in our communities who served our country! We owe you every day!

Trust...trust is one of the hardest things to earn and the quickest to destroy. In our profession, trust is earned and given each day with many people involved. Parents trust that our teachers/coaches/sponsors are doing everything in their power to give their child(ren) the best experience they can give. Students trust that their school is there to help them become better individuals they socially can be. Teachers trusting that their administration is there to provide guidance while not micromanaging and that admin is looking out for them. Administration is looking to the superintendent for the same while the superintendent trusts his/her board to provide the guidance of what the communities are looking for their school.

What a crazy circle of trust that we sometimes just assume happens. As we have discussed and experienced, there is plenty of ups and downs that happens but we are hopeful that our trust in others will be rewarded by being there when in needed. I'm aware that we are battling time constraints, the constant pull of many activities and where is this time needed to accomplish all items? Whether you are a student, teacher, parent, board member, admin, etc...we all are searching for those answers.

Trust that all of us are continuing to look out for those solutions and that we can continue to have each others back. There may be a day where it seems doubtful but don't lose faith in anyone. We are all battling and doing our part to be the best for those around us. If there is one thing for certain, those in SRC love your kids, we love our profession and we will continue to give our best and build that trust. Staff, trust that your admin is looking out for you and trying to find ways to limit those unnecessary items from your plate. We are all in this together and the quickest way to fail is trying to accomplish a task as individuals.

Turkey break is on the horizon. Let's continue to push through those obstacles and find those solutions. I thank everyone for there dedication to our district and everyone that is involved within our communities.

Have a great Sunday and let's have a great week!

Quote of the week to make you think:

"Trust is the glue of life. It's the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It's the foundational principle that holds all relationships."

- Stephen R. Covey
