On this episode, I zoom in Dr. Angela Draper, and we chat about how she found herself in K-12 education and her roadmap to becoming an edupreneur.
Dr. Angela Draper is in her 17th year in education and over the course of her career in education, she has held many leadership roles including her current position as an Elementary School Principal. Angela believes in high-touch customer service and proper planning is the cornerstone to success in schools.
Dr. Draper believes in servant leadership and civic responsibility. She belongs to a Sorority, a Mother’s Club, and very active in her Church Community. Angela is married to a retired Naval Senior Chief and they have a very energetic little girl. She is a God girl and doesn’t mind letting people know.
She is the voice behind the Virtual Principal Podcast where we talk about the struggles, successes, and situations we encounter as school leaders. This podcast is for passionate, problem-solving Principals, Assistant Principals, and Aspiring Leaders who want to lead with courage and love. Each week I provide conversations with expert guests or personal reflections discussing the many facets of school leadership including topics such as supporting teachers and students during distance learning, embedding social-emotional learning into school culture, coaching teachers to success, and gamifying classrooms for student success.
Dr. Draper's personal mission statement is: Lead with Courage and Love.
