In Klein ISD, our Promise2Purpose Investors 
are innovative forever learners!

2
00:00:03,810 --> 00:00:08,990
Campus and district leaders recently spent 
time with George Couros, the author of The 
Innovator’s Mindset.

00:00:08,990 --> 00:00:09,990
Learn more, next!

00:00:09,990 --> 00:00:14,200


5
00:00:14,210 --> 00:00:18,020
Many in our school community recently read 
George Couros’ book "Innovator’s Mindset:...

6
00:00:18,020 --> 00:00:26,600
Empower Learning, Unleash Talent, and Lead 
a Culture of Creativity" and it sparked great 
dialogue about innovatively teaching students 
today.

7
00:00:26,610 --> 00:00:35,000
Couros recently visited with a number of 
educators in the district, and he continues 
to challenge us to really focus on our golden 
thread of innovation!

8
00:00:35,010 --> 00:00:45,800
The innovator’s mindset begins with a growth 
mindset that believes believes that abilities, 
intelligence, and talent can be developed 
so they lead to the creation of new and better 
ideas.

9
00:00:45,810 --> 00:00:53,200
This notion aligns beautifully with our strategic 
priorities of reimagine learning, cultivate 
talent, and build community.

10
00:00:53,210 --> 00:00:59,400
In the spirit of continuous improvement, 
we will focus our resources and relationships 
on these priorities.

11
00:00:59,410 --> 00:01:03,300
The relationships we build daily with our 
students are crucial to our work.

12
00:01:03,310 --> 00:01:05,300
I love this quote shared by Couros from Joe 
Martin,

13
00:01:05,310 --> 00:01:12,990
“No school teacher has ever had a former 
student return to say a standardized test 
changed his or her life.”

14
00:01:12,990 --> 00:01:22,200
Our hope is each Promise2Purpose Investor 
leaves a legacy of impact for their students 
that makes a difference in their lives and 
ultimately ensures they find their purpose.

15
00:01:22,210 --> 00:01:29,600
The biggest game-changer in education is 
and always will be an educator who innovates 
and builds relationships.

16
00:01:29,610 --> 00:01:32,800
This innovation often begins and ends with 
empathy.

17
00:01:32,810 --> 00:01:39,500
It is my greatest joy to enter a Klein classroom 
and see students who are connected with their 
work and passionate about their learning.

18
00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:46,400
A teacher who innovates, builds relationships, 
and expects success will make a powerful 
difference for EVERY student.

19
00:01:46,410 --> 00:01:49,900
These highlights are just a glimpse of the 
inspiration Couros gave us.

20
00:01:49,910 --> 00:01:57,900
Our joy now is to give our students the opportunity 
to shine a light on their world so all Klein 
students enter with a promise, exit with 
a purpose.

21
00:01:57,910 --> 00:02:01,700
One upcoming opportunity is the first-ever 
innovation challenge.

22
00:02:01,710 --> 00:02:06,800
We will announce the exciting topic next 
week, so stay connected. It's going to be 
big!

23
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:10,400
That’s Klein is just over ninety seconds. 
See you next week!
