                                                      Reflection
                To begin, a principal must always keep the school’s vision and mission in mind while
        deciding on the faculty members for each role. For example, if the principal is trying to fill the
        position of bus duty, and the schools vision is about fulfilling their students needs, the person in
        charge of this duty should display these qualities. It is crucial that the principal keeps their
        professional dispositions in mind while decision making. The decisions that the principal makes
        will effect the entire school. Lastly, the principal can promote a positive learning culture by
        encouraging all teachers to take interest in extra leadership positions. The principal should give
        all teachers the opportunity to express their interest in leadership positions. As teachers, there is
        already a form of leadership inside us while working in the classroom, so teachers should be able
        to mold themselves into leaders outside the classroom.
                Additionally, it is important when assigning leadership responsibilities because these
        teachers are in charge of making our school stronger in their role. The teachers also serve as a
        leader for our students and need to make sure they are representing themselves appropriately in
        front of the students. Also, the leader you choose should have a positive outlook on their role to
        ensure they are doing their job to the best of their ability. Finally, failure to select individuals
        careful can result in a negative impact on your school and students. For example, if an
        inappropriate teacher was selected to be at lunch duty, many things could go wrong. This could
        result in students get hurt, not being able to open/eat their food, or even a bunch of chaos. It is
	
	
	
    
        crucial that as a principal you are choosing the very best candidate to take on these leadership
        positions.
