"Most of the talk and the focus around mindsets is on students. While that's important, I might dare say, it's even more important that we focus on mindsets for administrators and for teachers. If they don't have the most positive mindsets, they're going to be limited in their effectiveness to reach and connect with the students and help them to develop the more positive mindsets."
