Summary
Three speakers at an unspecified meeting praised incoming leaders, emphasized mentorship and said investing in Davis County schools will have local and broader benefits.
Three speakers at an unspecified public meeting said they are excited about a new generation of leaders and urged investment in Davis County education.
They said leadership development and how leaders are supported matter as much as specific policies. "What we do matters, but how we do it matters even more," Speaker 3, Commenter, said.
The speakers framed their remarks around mentorship and a return to the classroom as a long-term commitment. "I remember my very first question in my first interview was where do you see yourself in 5 years? And I said, 5 years, 30 years, I will be in the classroom," Speaker 1, Commenter, said. Speaker 1 also said, "I know that I've had really hard moments and high moments, and I wouldn't be in the position that I am if it wasn't for the leaders before me who saw me and helped build me up and support me. And so I'm so excited to get to do that for someone else."
Another speaker described the experience as unexpectedly positive and expressed optimism about emerging leadership. "I didn't know what to expect, and it's it's been awesome so far. Real excitement to see what this new generation of leaders can can bring and and really to teach us," Speaker 2, Commenter, said. That speaker added that earlier they would not have expected to be capable of administration: "I would have thought a few years ago that I wouldn't be capable of of doing, like, administration."
One speaker tied leadership and education back to local investment. "Sometimes I feel that people look to make an impact in the world, but we forget about our own backyards. And so, by focusing here on Davis County, we are investing in our backyards and the investment, that investment will go on to bless and prosper the world," Speaker 3, Commenter, said.
