I hope that this committee continues to grow in numbers and power so that things actually change, for the better, if our power is truly acknowledged.

We need to build better lines of communication, but it seems that, at the district level, there is no desire to change and build those better lines of communication that can lead to inviting more voices in; especially when decisions need to be made that impact our families/community members.

I love the process of working with others and bouncing ideas- as they bounce, they grow and refine

particularly: power hoarding, either/or thinking, defensiveness, adherence to the status quo/status quo is the only way, paternalism, individualism, right to comfort

Including parents, students, and the greater community.

Not knowing our students and families and not centering them in all decisions prevents the district from the making the changes that are obvious and needed. While some staff members DO know and center students, most of those in leadership positions do NOT, and that is the disconnect.

I prefer to be the worker bee type, in that we work collectively for a end purpose.

Our human connection brings us together toward a shared purpose.

I hope this committee can help to unify the 5 sites and build shared purpose. I also hope communication within and from the district will improve.

I also like to collaborate. I think decisions should be made collectively. I can sometimes imagine the big picture outcome of something I'm working on, but it's harder for me to know/figure out how to implement. It's helpful to work with people who can balance me in that way.

I'm excited to see how this committee can improve communication throughout the entire district. I think "Bridge" Committee is a great name and a great idea - bridging the divide between buildings.

I hope that we can not only build better cross building communication, but also foster better communication with our families/community members.

I think my leadership style is collaborative. I appreciate the voices of others, trying to build some form of consensus.
