Day three of celebrating our amazing CCS principals! You can count on Chatham Early College’s principal, Dr. April Burko, to always have a plan... and a backup plan for that plan, too!
That’s why she’s Most Likely to Have a Backup Plan for the Backup Plan. 💜

Her favorite quote reminds us what leadership is really about:
“My humanity is caught up, it is inextricably bound up, in what is yours.” – Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Let’s hear it for Dr. Burko, a leader with heart, wisdom, and an eight-armed approach to success!💜 #NationalPrincipalsMonth #OneChatham

¡Día tres celebrando a nuestros increíbles directores de CCS! ¡Puedes contar con la directora de Chatham Early College, la Dra. April Burko, para siempre tener un plan... y un plan de respaldo para ese plan también! 💜

Por eso fue elegida como la más propensa a tener un plan de respaldo para el plan de respaldo.

Su frase favorita nos recuerda de qué se trata realmente el liderazgo: “Mi humanidad está ligada, está inextricablemente unida, a la tuya.” – Arzobispo Desmond Tutu

¡Un reconocimiento a la Dra. Burko, una líder con corazón, sabiduría y un enfoque de ocho brazos para alcanzar el éxito! 💜 #OneChatham
