Utilizing true stories and conversations, I attempt to illustrate how poor leadership transformed a once proud school district into Pittsville.

There is no possible way that I would have ever attempted to write my story, had not my career taken so many twists and turns. Working for twelve principals, in spans that ranged from two months to seven and a half years, enabled me to develop my own set of strategies, learn what ideas worked, and accumulate enough stories that made me angry, made me laugh, and motivated me to write my story.

In closing, bitterness is not a character trait becoming to anyone, yet bitterness is what motivated me to write my story.
