Teacher is the name of God

Lyricist, as you know, can be a physicist. Or a mathematician. Or a biologist. He cannot only be a school director. Because the school principal has no time for poetry these days. Moreover, it’s no laughing matter. As in the song: different times, different things.

The diary, as you know, is kept by students. Or writers. Or just people. Again, lyrical physicists. Only the school principal does not keep a diary. For – a) not by status; b) no time; c) a real diary should contain daily assessments of oneself, but the director has outgrown this matter. He gives ratings to others - from the other end of the massive table. And at the same time he makes a smart face.

Reader! This is a unique book. There is no such book in Russia anymore, because there is no such school director in Russia anymore. His name is Alexander Popov, and he lives in Chelyabinsk. I know him personally. I give you my teeth.

Popov doesn't put on a smart face. This is what makes it so dear. He laughs and cries at the same time, clowns and is sad. Reading his diary, out of habit, it may seem like he is acting like a fool. But here in Russia people always acted like fools out of pain. But Popov has only one pain: school, around which the ring of “hell of reality” is compressed.

It’s hard to call it a society – everything is much more global. Read it, you will find out for yourself how life turns out to be for the director of a secondary educational institution. But Popov does not play pathetic-tragic chords - he whistles on a reckless trumpet, jokes, “plays around and plays tricks.” Although he does not clown around and, most importantly, does not fall into cynicism, because for a true teacher this is like death. At the same time, we feel that in his buffoonery, with some deepest part of his heart, the author remains serious, even tragic.

This is probably how you have to survive in modern world- wisely, sadly laughing and playing with the impenetrable stupidity of bureaucrats and auditors, thrifty economists, education idiots. Yeah! Do you feel it? We are ready to fall into Popov’s mischievous, laconic style, into the heresy of his fugitive puns. Why do we give in so easily? Someone said that this is what determines a real personality, a true talent: you yourself don’t notice how you begin to speak in his voice, smile with his smile, run with his gait.

What is missing in our education today? Money doesn't count. Uma? Wisdom? Hearts? Lungs? All this is still there, but not the same person. Individuality. A teacher who does not teach, but infects and captivates.

´Whom you want to imitate with your mouth open. To catch his every word, every paradox, every impromptu, to discover a parable in every action, to comprehend the world’s sadness in every smile. Where can I get these? Popov is the only troublemaker in all of Russia, while others have forgotten that Teacher is the name of God, and not an audio appendage to a textbook. “Faceless schools” - how well and sadly the author said it. In others there are European panels, and fountains with distilled water, and marble stairs, and computers almost in the toilets, and the sign at the entrance is lit with gold leaf - but there is no face. Because the face is not there. In Popov’s office, of all the attributes of a modern director’s office, there are only blinds. The rest is all human: a dish of caramels, a battered tape recorder, thick literary magazines.

What kind of director is this? He plays pranks on the teacher, plays hooligans at meetings, throws snow off the school roof himself in winter, writes “I love you” on the outbuilding in the school yard, and writes poems in his notebook. It’s not for nothing that one of the high-ranking heroes of the “Diary” answered the question “how are you?” replies: “Everything is fine, if not for this Popov.” Of course! Popov is inconvenient.

Even reading it is somehow awkward, because suddenly you seem to touch the exposed wire of truth - all the glamorous plaster falls away. And you understand uncompromisingly and clearly: this is how, only this, a real teacher should be (the mechanically bitter “unfortunately” begs to be heard).

Popov doesn’t need to write an exciting novel - he’s one of those who turns life itself into a novel. His lyceum is a kind of “incubator” of brilliant children, whose physical and mathematical achievements and victories at world Olympiads are known throughout the country. But in this school they educate people not so much with formulas as with creative provocation. They teach you to think paradoxically and boldly. And our author had the first hand in this.

“Leave only a line from a real verse - the breath of poetry will not stop. Same with school. What kind of things do they do to us? We are and will be!”

Because a school is not a building with bulging windows the world around us. The school is the teacher. A school can be bankrupted, broken, its very idea can be violated (Beslan), and, in the end, blown up. And a real teacher, if he survives, will come to the ruins, whistle on his wise pipe, children will come running from everywhere and sit in a circle. And this will be a school. A pipe and a smile are enough, but “the rest is the soul.”

Popov came up with his own school - in all meanings of the word. And we wish all his endeavors only patience. And the diaries will have long continuations. And for their readers - thoughtful truthfulness before themselves.

...The school principal cannot be a lyricist!

But, glory public education, we still have a lyricist who can remain a school principal. An isolated, unthinkable case, some kind of mistake, but we have not yet been deprived of this wonderful mistake.

– Popov, diary on the table!

School Principal's Diary

The past cannot be forgiven.

I say two words:

Thursday

An investigator complained about missing student cell phones. He asked about the level of education, inquired about his nationality, wrote down his home address and disappeared. The police have long taken over the functions of statistical bureaus.

Friday

I taught my parents to write a complaint against themselves to the education authorities because I thoughtlessly wanted to cut the staffing table. Taught. I was punished. The staff was retained.

Saturday

When asked:

– Which party are you a member of? – I answer proudly:

- Atheist.

I secretly hope: an atheist from a stork - party members from other birds.

Sunday

I caught a student in the toilet. He set fire to the garbage behind the radiator.

- Well, Artyom, everything is clear with you.

- I? I didn't do anything.

– Did you burn down the Ostankino TV tower?

– Honestly, it's someone else. And here it’s my fault, I didn’t think.

- Well, think about it, and I’ll go look.

- Who set the tower on fire?

Monday

I reprimanded the teacher for being late for class, and she responded to me:

- Yesterday I came earlier - so you didn’t even notice.

Tuesday

I have a strange secretary. Teachers come in to ask for copier paper, but she insists on giving toilet paper. They are shy, take it and immediately leave.

Wednesday

Accounting is the belly of the school. They eat without stopping, they don’t even have time to smile.

Thursday

1 °September

Today I saw the cleaning lady’s child running around in a shirt without buttons. I called him over and said:

- Raya, can you sew on buttons?

- Buttons, buttons... There are no needles.

Friday

They came to turn off the electricity for non-payment. The municipality pays, but the schools suffer. It’s good for the northerners, at least there’s no headache about it for six months.

There is no payment for solid waste. Access to the trash heap is closed. I burn garbage on Saturdays and Sundays. These days there is no one for the locals to complain to. But on Monday there is no point: the wind carries away the ashes and ash.

Saturday

A retired grandmother and a policeman are on duty at night. She is vigilant about budgetary funds, he is vigilant about fees from parents. Early this morning she made an important statement to me:

- Director, I protest.

- What happened, Anna Fedorovna?

I am pleased to welcome respected colleagues, students, school graduates, as well as their parents to the pages of our website. Here you can get acquainted with the latest news, find information about our complex, the structure of the educational institution, the achievements of students, teachers and much more. 11 years have passed since the opening of our school, but despite our small age, we have achieved great success

Briefly formulating the concept of our school, I can name the main thing:

1. In-depth study of at least two (and if desired, which we welcome, more) languages;

2. Raising a future citizen of our country, a leader, regardless of the chosen occupation, a politician, a businessman of the new generation;

3. Development of a personality capable of finding a way out of any situation, negotiating and collaborating with other people, receiving joy and satisfaction from work and creativity;

4.Providing students with modern quality education and creating opportunities for conscious choice future profession upon admission to university.

At all times there were and are no two identical schools, since, despite the uniform programs, requirements and rules, each school lives by its own laws. Like in any other school, we have a lot of good things and what we may not like and irritate, we have achievements and problems, successes and failures. We, just like you, sincerely want and try to work so that the school becomes better, better in literally this word, so that, having finished it, your child could proudly say: “I am a graduate of a good school, high school secondary school No. 2010." We are not able to achieve this alone - we urgently need your help and support, patience and understanding, if not love, then at least friendship!

Please note: we want the same things that you have a right to expect from us for your children. Remember that only your good will in deciding certain school problems can help change something for the better. Your children study here, and only our joint efforts, and not fighting each other, will work for their future. Try to seek advice from a teacher or school administration, do not be afraid to ask tough questions, because calm and patient protection of the child’s legitimate interests is YOUR RIGHT and OUR RESPONSIBILITY! I am convinced that common sense and self-confidence, faith in the professionalism and integrity of a teacher can move mountains. With all my heart I wish you success in this difficult and interesting, nervous and educational task, so important for all of us - the education and upbringing of your children - our students.

Our school is a modern, new education - and old, strong educational positions. We are for democracy, but on the basis of respect not only for teachers for children, but also for children for their teachers.

We will demand composure and seriousness from children.

We are ready and want to live a common life.

We are confident that among our students there will be specialists to work in different countries who will contribute to the development international relations in the field of education, science and culture. And that they will serve the Motherland, peace and friendship between people of different nationalities.

We want our school to remain clean and beautiful.

We want children here to have an easy and calm, difficult and interesting time.

We are always glad to see you.

Works in our complex creative team, in which there are labor veterans and young teachers. Our graduates and parents are always with us in solving many problems.

I thank teaching staff, all employees, students of the school for their work, study, dedication to their work and their beloved school.

Our educational complex is a school of equal but diverse opportunities. We claim that there are no unsuccessful people. Anyone can achieve success if given the right conditions. We try to provide such opportunities to everyone. It's interesting for children to learn and interesting for teachers to work with.

The complex has created a special, emotionally attractive environment. The vibrant atmosphere of school-wide holidays, school trips, newspaper releases, concerts, festivals, creative competitions - this is what our teachers and students live for.

Want to know more? Welcome to our website. We have a lot more to tell about our school. We really wanted the information on our website to always be interesting, relevant and useful for you.

My professional credo as a leader: By developing yourself, keeping up with the times, thinking about the future, creating comfortable conditions for the child and staff, you can develop the team and lead it. It is very important that the manager is experienced and knowledgeable. But life does not stand still, so it is even more important that he constantly wants to learn and learns. Only a person who is sincerely convinced of this himself can convince others. But my main task is to convince, and then, if necessary, to help.

Working as a manager, I am in constant search and adjustment of my own actions. This way of life is not very simple, sometimes from the outside it probably seems that you are being thrown from side to side, from the frying pan into the fire. Maybe, maybe...

Innovation is therefore a difficult process because it requires promotion and support. Here the manager is a revolutionary, and therefore he has to be a herald, a defender, a lawyer, and an attacker at the same time.
