A Strengthened Resolve

Many of you know I've applied to the Northeastern Illinois University Educational Leadership program, but did you know, I've still not been officially accepted. All of my papers have been turned in, but about two weeks ago, I recieved a notice that my letters of recommendation were not from my supervisors, and therefore, needed to be resubmitted.

I resolved tonight, to not only finish this process, but use this opportunity to set myself up for greater success in the future. I will solicit a letter of recommendation from my principal at the same time, I look for a year of mentoring as well. I am going to need all of the help I can get to move from a classroom teacher to an administrator. These jobs are not similar, and it is time to be proactive in making this move.

Nathan, I know what you are going through, it's tough to make a big change and really be proactive in life as opposed to reactive. Hold strong you'll get there.
