Today's educational leadership plays a critical role in building a school culture of integrity. It is obvious that without order in classrooms, teachers are not able to teach. What is not always so obvious but is equally true is that by creating a moral and caring community environment in the schools by teaching kids, for example, to really care about others, students feel better about themselves and work harder.
