Hi Giulia,

It’s a funny thing about school communities (or any community!). We invariably feel like outsiders, but one day, perhaps years later, we are insiders. You have a fan club. Believe me. They are called The Silent Majority. They just haven’t had the courage to voice their opinions or cheer you on yet!

Carry yourself and speak your mind on behalf of your Secret Admirers!

Pretty soon (by the time your kids are the older kids) you will be running the school like a club!

Be fearless! Those that laugh are merely terrified of your power.
