Many gifted educators have shared their expertise in international settings. One of these is Gail Goolsby. She is a teacher and international K-12 administrator who has worked in the patriarchal society of Kabul, Afghanistan.
Gail decided to move from the United States to Afghanistan to develop and lead the international School of Kabul after the terrorist attacks of September 11. She spent seven years there, facing the challenges of working in a place where women were devalued and considered weak. Her book, Unveiled Truth, vividly describes her experiences during those years.
This amazing Chalkboard Champion retired from a career in education after serving 25 years as a teacher, school counselor, and principal. Today she is active in the community writing, speaking, counseling, and serving as a certified life coach in her own business, Learn to Live Well.
For her outstanding work as an educator, Gail was inducted into the prestigious Delta Kappa Gamma Society in 2013. She has been a member in both Missouri and Kansas. Within the organization she served on the Educational Excellence Committee. Currently, she serves as Beta Rho Chapter Vice President. Gail encourages members in the chapter and region to take advantage of Delta Kappa Gamma opportunities.
