Supporting educators pursuing NBC.
NBCNY's Featured NBCT:
Kenneth Huff
.
Kenneth Huff, NBCT from Williamsville CSD in Western NY was nominated by an NBCT colleague to be our NBCNY Featured NBCT because he believes in transformational leadership through NBCTs.
"Education is constantly in a state of flux. However, we cannot let a changing landscape and what is hard get in the way of what is right. The beneficiaries of our leadership are our students, the future citizens of our society. Leadership is key in successful transformation in education. We can turn our expectations for a better tomorrow into actions that make a difference for our students. Leadership is important for us as NBCT’s because it is a mechanism that we bring to the various components of transformation in education in ways that will improve K-12 teaching and learning."
