GR: Building Future Leaders

Winnetka Voices Season 3 Episode 2

In this episode, Dr. Kelly Tess, Superintendent, interviews Ms. Lindsay Kopinski, Principal of Greeley School. Ms. Kopinski reflects on the varied experiences that led her to her current role. In the midst of several initiatives, such as the rollout of new Literacy curriculum and a new Structured Learning Environment classroom to better serve the needs of students, Ms. Kopinski shares her leadership philosophy. “We have to give each other the grace and the space to be able to try things out and get away from the belief that we have to do everything perfectly…I am there to learn along with teachers and support them in the process. I want every student to know that they are a leader in some way shape or form in their lives. We at Greeley will continue to grow those skills for our students…because they are the future.”
