2. The importance of teacher support and feedback. I believe teacher support and feedback are important to help create an environment where students can make progress
3. Effective use of budgetary resources. I feel that the effective use of budgetary resources is so critical in today’s economics due to the lack of funding across the school system. In today’s fast paced society where things are constantly changing, the focus has to remain on the quality of instruction for my school.
