One of my favorite things about Ava is her complete disregard for professionalism — even she would agree that her leadership methods are far from traditional (and sometimes veer away from being completely legal). But that doesn’t mean she isn’t good at her job; she’s doing so well that during her tenure as principal of Abbott Elementary, the students’ test scores increased, absences decreased, and after-school programs are more abundant than ever. In Ava’s words, she truly is that girl.
