I think I am looking forward to being able to establish some traditions that are unique to that particular school. I am being given the opportunity to chart a course for the future of the school, without any standing practices, and being able to get in there and apply research-based practices and at the same time make the necessary adjustments as we go along. |
I think it is a great opportunity. I certainly appreciate the academy recognizing me by offering me this chance. |
I think one thing is, and I have taught at both a coed school and in an all-boys school, and I think there is a degree of freedom to express themselves more naturally in a setting where they might feel a little safer doing that. I think an all-boys setting has done that for a lot of young men. |
