"If schools truly want to achieve excellence, it will first depend upon a school leader who is committed to quality education in
practices, and who personally and professionally models the character he or she seeks to foster in students.  Then it requires that
the leader intentionally and effectively shepherds an adult culture of professionals and other staff who also authentically model
character for the students and for each other.  No school will succeed with adults who do not authentically commit to,
master the pedagogy of and embody positive character and social competencies."
