Dr. Beth Godett is a lifelong educator from a family of lifelong educators. First an English teacher, then a principal, and, ultimately, a superintendent, Beth has always been aware that to best meet the needs of those entrusted to our care, children and adults alike, we often need to challenge the obvious. Through her wealth of experience as an administrator, she has found ways to be an innovator by connecting people and resources and uncovering assets in a world where funding may be restricted, but possibilities for collaboration and sharing are endless. She believes in seeking ways around rather than admiring roadblocks and does this presently through her work as an adjunct professor and in her writing and research.
