October is National Principals Month! We’re celebrating with a new prompt each week and an opportunity to win an Amazon gift card. There were so many great answers about your theme songs last week that it was hard to choose. Check out our members’ winning responses for Week 1:
Week 1 winners: What would be your school’s theme song, and why?
“We’re All in This Together” from High School Musical. My AP and I are both new to our building. The previous principal was here for 14 years. We have been very intentional with steps to create opportunities to get to know staff and learn about the systems and culture that was previously in place. Our goal has been to build a TEAM with a strong foundation of shared trust and goals. I feel that this song perfectly sums up the work we have begun this year. – Rachel Collins, Principal, Brookdale Elem., Franklin-Pierce SD
“Courage to Change” by Sia. Our theme this year is Bears on Board. We have the courage to change while we row together. –Mallory Wilson, AP, Olympia High, Olympia SD
Our school song would be “Count on Me” by Bruno Mars because our building has been focused on creating positive relationships with students, staff, and the community. – Veronica Guizar, AP, Granger Middle, Granger SD
“High Hopes” by Panic at the Disco or “How Far I’ll [We’ll] Go” from the Moana soundtrack. Our school is going places this year…we’ve got big goals and we’re going to reach them! –Malissa Weatherbie, Principal, Mt. Pilchuck Elementary, Lake Stevens SD
BONUS WINNER: Charles Cook, Principal at Southworth Elementary in Yelm CS created a song about his school using AI!
Congrats to our Week 1 winners! If you didn’t win this week, there are three more prompts and opportunities this month to win. Watch for our prompts on social media and via email each Wednesday.
