Yes, you can reach a higher level of expertise in working with children; and yes, the strategies shared in The Power of Caring for Elementary Schools can help you do it!
The success secrets shared in this book were tried, tested, and proven (in four different schools and over a period of more than twenty years) when I was an elementary principal with Columbus City Schools in Columbus, Ohio. They really made a difference in my schools, and I am confident they can continue to do so in many schools, classrooms, and homes all across America. That's the purpose of the book, and you are invited to become a part of it and help make it happen.
- Debbie Glenn, a teacher who taught in one of my schools recently wrote, I believe in your methods and hope other people 'catch on!' I think it is the only way to succeed in today's educational challenges.
- Stacey Lundgren, author of "True Bucketfilling Stories -- Legacies of Love," wrote the following review on Amazon.com: This book is terrific! In my opinion, it should be required reading for student teachers and suggested reading for all other teachers and administrators. Parents, too? Absolutely. As a character education professional who presents anti-bullying/pro-kindness programs in schools throughout the country, I know the importance of exemplifying empathy to children. Empathy is what is missing for many children. Thanks, Mr. Winner, for the power and clarity in your book.
Yes, there is power in communicating that we care--power to transform the lives of boys and girls! And every school needs a growing team of educators who really believe in the power of caring and work together to find and share real solutions for today’s educational concerns. Are you a believer and would you like to become part of such a winning team? This book can help you get it all started in your school or in moving forward from where you are to an even greater level or success in meeting the needs of boys and girls.
