Friday Focus By: Steve M. Flores, PhD with Jenny Lacoste‐Caputo Friday Focus is about connecting with the people you serve, regardless of the position you occupy. By sharing personal stories, the reader is able to identify with the author directly by understanding and connecting with the likes, dislikes, fears, questions, and understandings gleaned from a background that is portrayed in a weekly message shared with staff over the course of 104 Fridays. The author, as a career educator of thirty-eight years (from driving buses to becoming a paraprofessional, teacher’s aide, coach, history teacher, assistant principal, principal, area superintendent, assistant superintendent, deputy superintendent, chief of staff and superintendent), is able to highlight the hopes and dreams that are found in everyday situations. The enlightening and positive messages give the reader the understanding that regardless of one’s circumstances, the world is indeed a remarkable and magnificent place. Now more than ever, we need to all understand that our world is better when we are together. This book provides us with shared reflections that we can all understand.
