Our "Monday Morning Ed-U-Upper" has become
the most widely read e-mail periodical directed to educators.
It's free and goes all over the world every Monday
morning. You will find it short, filled with humor, quotes, motivational
pieces, fresh ideas, and bits of this and that.
We hope you'll try it. It's easy to get on, and very
easy to get off.

YOUR COOPERATION IS
RESPECTFULLY REQUESTED...
When submitting suggestions kindly be specific!
What kind of kite? What lake?
THE PRINCIPAL IS
ALWAYS RIGHT...
Misinformed perhaps, maybe a little sloppy,
sometimes a bit crude, fickle, bullheaded,
even stupid, but never
wrong!
ROME DID NOT CREATE A GREAT
EMPIRE BY HAVING
MEETINGS...
They did it by eliminating all those who
opposed
them!
TELL ME AGAIN HOW
LUCKY
I AM TO BE A PRINCIPAL...
I keep forgetting!
DON'T BE NERVOUS,
OR AFRAID...
Just remember that if you are responsible for
any mistakes you will be severely punished!
NEVER PUT OFF TILL
TOMORROW...
What you can get someone else
to do for you today!
IF YOU CAN REMAIN CALM,
WHILE
CHAOS IS ALL AROUND...
Then you probably haven't completely
understood the situation!
I'D LIKE TO HELP YOU OUT...
Which way did you come in?
WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?
Is often the least important question!
OF COURSE I WANT
IT TODAY...
If I wanted it tomorrow,
I would give it to you tomorrow!
EVERYONE BRINGS ME
HAPPINESS...
Some by arriving. Some by leaving!
AND YOUR CRYBABY, WHINY
OPINION WOULD BE?
WHAT PART OF "NO!"...
Don't you understand?
PRINCIPALS GENERALLY HAVE TWO
REASONS FOR
DOING ANYTHING...
One that sounds good, and a real one!
SORRY, I CAN'T DEAL WITH
ANY CRISIS TODAY...
My schedule is already full.
CHAOS, PANIC, &
DISORDER...
My work here is almost done!
ATTITUDES ADJUSTED...
While you wait!
CRISIS IN PROGRESS...
Please do not disturb!
EQUAL RIGHTS ARE NOT
SPECIAL RIGHTS!
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE YOU
UNDERSTAND
WHAT YOU THINK
I SAID...
But, I am not sure you realize that what
you heard, is not what I meant!
IF THE PRINCIPAL
ISN'T HAPPY...
Nobody is going to be happy!
PLEASE DO NOT...
Bother, bewilder, tease, cajole, annoy, enrage,
anger, tempt, feed, entice, or bully our
teachers.
They are only doing their jobs!
THE BIGGEST LEARNING
DISABILITY...
Is knowing all the answers!
LEAD, FOLLOW...
Or get out of the way!
FORGET WORLD PEACE...
Try visualizing a calm, peaceful cafeteria!
I AM NOT DISORGANIZED...
I have an anti-systematic
methodological disorder!
WEL.COM
YEA, THOUGH I WALK...
Through the valley of the shadow of death,
I shall fear no evil. Because I am the meanest
and most ornery of all principals in the valley!
ME PRINCIPAL,
YOU NOT...
Please go away!
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE...
The power of stupid people in large groups!
LONESOME? LIKE TO MEET
NEW PEOPLE?
Just "screw up" one more time!
TEAMWORK...
Means never having to take all of the
blame yourself!
THE PERSON WHO CAN SMILE
WHEN THINGS GO WRONG...
Probably has just thought of
someone to blame it all on!
WARNING!
Due to a shortage of robots, teachers
here are human beings and may
react unpredictably if abused!
NEVER TRY TO TEACH A
PIG TO SING...
It wastes your time and it annoys the pig!
IF YOU EXPLAIN CLEARLY...
So that nobody can misunderstand,
somebody will.
RULE NUMBER 1...
The principal is always
right!
Rule Number 2...
If the principal is wrong, see Rule #1
A
WISE OLD OWL...
A wise old owl lived
in an oak,
The more he saw the less he spoke.
The less he spoke, the more he heard,
Why can't we be like that wise old bird?
NOTICE...
The
objective of all school employees should be to
thoroughly analyze all situations, anticipate all problems prior
to their occurrence, have answers for those problems, and
move swiftly to solve those problems when called upon!
We realize, however, that when you are
up to your derriere in alligators, it is difficult to remember
that your initial objective was to drain the swamp.
