Collaborate With Your Colleagues!
The Illinois Principals Association is proud to offer educational leaders this professional opportunity to network with colleagues in order to create a statewide e-learning community. The IPA Principal's Principles Network allows you to chat online with a peer, discuss postings in the forum, and join a group interested in deep study and conversation on a certain topic. You may also want to start your own forum conversation or create your own group. Our hope is that The IPA Principal's Principles Network will encourage you with timeless leadership principles, advance learning for students and adults and spur you on to consider using this technology in your own leadership setting. Enjoy!

I certainly agree with Jim's three guidelines, however, I always want all parties to understand that my final decision will always be based on what is best for the students.
