Campuswide Interventions That Improve Student Achievement

I think this final section of the article is very clear identifying that to make good headway everyone needs to work together as a team (student, parents, teacher, and administration). The value and importance of continuing education is very clear. As well as having reasonable expectations of not only your students but also of your abilities. We as future teachers need to be on the look out for the inevitable disruptions and other issues that we will not be prepared for.

As humans beings we grow and change every day in nearly every way. I believe the ability to acknowledge that we do not know it all and ask for help when it is needed is a necessary characteristic of a successful, influential, and effective educator. Having adequate plans in the works to handle the various situations that most commonly occur will save time and frustration, which in turn will benefit the participants when the unexpected situations occur.
