RB2 Website When I think of the qualities above I think of Nicole Mentje's. She is the Pine Island High School Art teacher. She has been a great person to share ideas, resources and experiences with. Not only is she a great leader in her classroom, but also in the extra art activities she does in the community. Looking at the different points listed above this is where I see her as a transformational leader. 1. She is in charge of Art Scream which is the Pine Island Art Club. They raise money to go on trips and other art activities. Through the Art Scream group they are offering a trip to Italy and Greece. As I have learned this year that you need to really sell this trip and be confident about how exciting it will be to go on the trip. She created the vision by making a power point and adding visual of the places and things the kids will see and experience. 2. Nicole is very motivating when listening to her speak. She is very confident and fun. She is also very organized and has a true commitment to her people. She has already created buy in by having 12 students and 6 adults attend the trip. She also has a thriving art club. 3. Develop and delivery/implement- It takes a great deal organization to do activities, fundraisers, put art throughout the town, art shows and abroad trips. She does research that is clear to understand to help support her lessons and various activities. She is a clear and thoughtful communicator. She tries to think of issues that may arise before trying something new. She truly is visionary that can roll with the punches when things do not go her way. She can change that failure or mistake into a learning point. 4. Nicole is a constant in her students lives. She makes her students a priority. She is available after school and there are students in her room after hours frequently. She needs to have a gentle manner to be able to critique and push kids to go out of their comfort level to do their best. She brings her best to state every year at the most pieces to bring possible. She also fights for her program and what is best for the kids. She is a true inspiration.
