Gray/Grey Areas

There Are no black and white areas: My thoughts as well! I was thinking today what I was going to title my second (Sunday) post, and the black and white quote came to mind. I came to the board only to find that those words were already used. I think that we all have to come to accept the fact that we are going to have many sleepless nights as we analyze our decisions (right or wrong) that we will face and make as administrators. There aren't going to be any textbooks for us to turn to to give us the "correct" answers. There are so many gray areas. Someone said it in an earlier post that it is so important to surround ourselves with competent and worthy colleagues. In the end, if we can truly answer the question, "Is it in the best interest of kids....?" and we truly base our decision on that mantra, then it is a decision that we can justify at any time. Again, we will meet many roadbumps along the way, but shouldn't the ends be able to justify the means?
