As the leader of Longdale Elementary School in Henrico County, first-year principal Andrea Prisco cheers and praises students’ and teachers’ good work and solves their problems. “Just like teachers and students, leaders need that also,“ she said. “You need to hear, ‘You’re doing a good job.‘ It’s lonely at the top sometimes.“ Fortunately, Prisco has Becky Bray on her side during difficult times at school and in her personal life to help her look for solutions and commend her work.
