      Entry Level Example

      "We are all stakeholders of our children's education -the parents, the teachers, the school leadership, and the administration alike. While some of these stakeholders have a closer connection with students than others, it is important to everyone."

      "I believe everyone is a stakeholder. This goes from faculty to the members of our community. Simple interactions in the hallway can impact students just as much as their home life."

      Experienced Example

      "I've been paying special attention to families and friends in the school system. Parents are especially crucial because they often drive students to sports practices, register them for music lessons, or take them to tutoring. They also share their children's progress."
