She also assists teachers with lesson plan ideas and best practices.
As a Pirate Leadership Academy fellow, Lynetti wants to become an effective leader who understands how a school system works as a district, as well as one building. She desires to learn how to effectively motivate and engage staff, students, parents and community members in creating a welcoming school environment where collaborative efforts flourish between all stakeholders.
Lynetti truly believes that everyone can be kind and that a smile goes a long way, as we don’t know what people are going through day to day. Sharing a smile and a kind word could mean so much to someone, and we may never know it, but they will. One of the quotes she lives by is “Let all you do, be done in love” from 1 Corinthians 16:14.
