It's a relatively new phenomenon: educators sharing their successes on social media. For some this is a major breach of the humility many educators feel is required of those in the profession. But a new generation of educators is pushing back on this notion and using PR and marketing strategies to brand their schools and tell their stories. We invited five educators on the leading edge of this issue to talk with uncommon candor about the culture clash between traditional educator values and those of the social media culture.

Sponsor: Sanebox Web Site Transformative Principal on Stitcher Refer A Principal A few weeks ago I had the great pleasure of interviewing Tony Sinanis. Little did I know, that he would be named the New York Elementary Principal of the Year! So, I interviewed him before he was famous. Tony Twitter is a great principal and one who is eager to share what he is doing well. He is also incredibly humble and self-aware. I hope you enjoy his interview. I sure learned a lot from him. Here is his BrandED podcast Tony discusses his background and how he is a first-generation college graduate, and not only that, he is working on his PhD and already has two Masters! Tony still keeps in contact with his first year’s class. Wow! Moving into his first school. Tony’s humility recognizing that he wasn’t the right fit for the school. Separating Tony the principal from Tony the Person. Recognizing that his cultural perspectives that were wrong for his school. The difference between white guilt and recognizing differences. Education is more than just the Common Core and High-Stakes Testing. We are disconnected from what the real world is. We try to make kids fit into this little box, totally discongruent to how the world works. He calls himself the Lead Learner, not the principal, because there is a real difference between the two. How Cantiague gives voice to the students. He demonstrates his learning whenever he can. He pushes himself out of his comfort zone as often as he can.
