Murry J. Schekman shares true stories and practical strategies for teachers, principals, and school leaders

New York City, New York, United States, 27th Jun 2026 – Murry J. Schekman is proud to announce the release of It’s All About Leadership in Schools…: What works and some of what doesn’t!, a new Educational Leadership book now available on Amazon. This Educational Leadership book shares real stories from a long career in schools and offers clear, practical ideas that school leaders can use every day.

This Educational Leadership book is based on Schekman’s journey from starting as an instructional aide to becoming a superintendent. Along the way, he worked as a teacher, counselor, assistant principal, principal, director, assistant superintendent, and college professor. These roles gave him a wide view of how schools work and what strong leadership looks like in real life.

A Real Look at Leadership in Schools

In It’s All About Leadership in Schools, the focus is on real people and real situations. Instead of theory alone, this Educational Leadership book shares stories about students, teachers, parents, and school staff. Some stories are serious, while others are fun and uplifting. Together, they show what works in schools and what sometimes does not.

Readers will learn about:

• Building a strong school culture
• Handling discipline in fair and thoughtful ways
• Creating effective class schedules
• Encouraging parent involvement
• Avoiding burnout as a school leader

One key message in this Educational Leadership book is the power of enthusiasm. Schekman shows how a leader’s energy and attitude can shape a whole school. When leaders care deeply and show it, others often follow.

Built on Experience, Not Just Theory

What makes this book different from many others in the Educational Leadership field is its simple and clear style. Many leadership books are written like textbooks. This one is not. It is easy to read and filled with lessons that come from real experience.

Schekman even connects his ideas to research, sometimes after the events happened. This makes the book both practical and thoughtful. Readers do not just learn what to do, they also understand why it works.

The book also shares moments from opening a new high school and building its culture from the ground up. These insights are rare and valuable for anyone interested in starting or improving a school.

About the Author

Murry J. Schekman brings decades of experience to this book. He has served as a principal at multiple schools, including high schools and middle schools. He also worked as a director, assistant superintendent, and interim superintendent.

In addition, he taught full-time at San Jose State University in the Counselor Education and Educational Leadership departments. He ended his career as a superintendent in his home district. Each role added to his understanding of leadership, which he now shares in this book.

His career gave him the chance to see both success and failure up close. This helped him reflect on what truly works in schools. His honest approach makes his writing both helpful and relatable.

Why Readers Will Enjoy This Book

This book is not only useful, it is also engaging. Readers will meet real people who work hard every day to support students. Some stories are surprising, and others are inspiring. There are even moments that bring humor into the serious world of school leadership.

If you want a book that is easy to read but still full of strong ideas, this is a great choice. It is written for current and future school leaders, but also for teachers and anyone interested in how schools succeed.

The author shares a clear guide to reading horse signals and building trust through kind communication.

New York City, New York, United States, 27th Jun 2026 – Ann Elliot is excited to share her new book, What Is My Horse Saying and Why Does It Matter?, a helpful and easy-to-read Animal Communication and Care Book now available on Amazon. This Pets & Animal Care guide shows readers how to better understand what horses are trying to say through their actions and body language. 

This Animal Communication and Care Book is written in a simple way so that young readers and beginners can follow along with ease. It also includes helpful visuals that make it easier to see and understand horse behavior. Readers will learn how to notice small signs that horses give every day and what they may mean. 

Understanding Your Horse in a New Way 

In What Is My Horse Saying and Why Does It Matter?, the focus is on learning how horses communicate. Horses do not use words, but they are always “speaking” through their movements, posture, and energy. This Animal Communication and Care Book helps readers see those signs clearly. 

The book explains how to tell when a horse is calm, nervous, happy, or unsure. It teaches readers how to respond in a way that builds trust instead of fear. This makes interactions safer and more positive for both the horse and the person. 

Readers will also learn that understanding a horse is not just about training. It is about forming a real connection. When people take time to listen and observe, they can create a stronger and more respectful relationship with their horse. 

A Message of Kindness and Trust 

This Animal Communication and Care Book shares a powerful idea: horses respond better to kindness, patience, and understanding. Ann Elliot believes that when people treat horses with care and respect, the bond becomes stronger. 

The book encourages readers to move away from harsh training methods. Instead, it promotes gentle communication and mutual trust. When both the horse and the person feel safe, the relationship becomes more natural and rewarding. 

This message is not only helpful for working with horses. It can also inspire readers to build better relationships with people in their lives. Understanding, patience, and clear communication are important in all our relationships. 

About the Author 

Ann Elliot has spent her whole life around horses. She grew up on a farm where she spent most of her time with animals. From a young age, she learned how to observe their behavior and understand what they were feeling and needing. 

One of the most important parts of her life was her bond with her horse, Sammy Gene. 

They shared many years together, and their connection was built on trust and care. Sammy Gene even helped save her life more than once. He lived to be 40 years old and is buried on her farm today. 

Ann turned her life experience into a professional path. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. She is a nationally rostered Cognitive Processing Therapist for PTSD. She is a Certified Domestic Violence Counseling, Certified Criminal Justice Specialist and a Biblical Research student for over 40 years. At her farm, Animal Acres in Missouri, she works with people and animals to support healing and learning. 

Her work focuses on helping others understand behavior, build trust, and create safe connections. She brings this deep knowledge and real-life experience into her writing. 

The Inspiration Behind the Book 

Ann’s story is shaped by what she saw growing up. She witnessed harsh and violent interactions between people and animals. This led her to choose a different path. 

When she was a small child, she asked for a young horse from her family’s farm and made a promise to always treat him with kindness and respect. That horse was Sammy Gene. Together, they built a relationship based on trust, not fear, that lasted over 40 years.

This experience became the heart of her book. Ann wants readers to know that there is a better way to work with horses. A way that is calm, caring, and respectful. 

Her goal is to help others avoid harmful methods and discover a gentler approach, while enhancing their relationship. 

Who Should Read This Book 

This book is perfect for anyone who wants to better understand horses. It is especially helpful for beginners, young readers, and people who are new to horse care. 

It is also valuable for those who have been around horses but want to deepen their understanding. Even experienced horse owners can learn something new by paying closer attention to behavior and communication. 

Beyond horses, the lessons in this book can help improve how people connect with others. The idea is simple: better understanding leads to better relationships.
