Forks in the Road: How to make sure you're driving your bus in the right direction
You know best practices and you know your vision, but how do you lead a whole school to see it and be it? Especially when new forks keep interrupting your plans and make you wonder if you are even on the right route. Forks like culture problems, lack of teacher trust, discipline issues, and the day-to-day operations you have to do, while also trying to accomplish school and district goals. If you are eager to feel closer to your leadership mission and leave with an action plan for how you are going to engage, educate, and empower your staff to achieve it, then this workshop is for you. You will leave with your own road map to get your school to its next destination, through the practices that flipped League Academy upside down and to 100% teacher/principal trust.

License to Coach: Implementing School Wide Coaching Cycles for Administrators and Instructional Coaches
Looking for a way to improve student achievement in your school? Are your teachers frustrated with their current observation feedback? Are you looking to develop a more positive coaching culture in your building? Traditionally, efforts within public schools to improve student outcomes have not materialized with the desired results. Oftentimes, these efforts are implemented as "one more thing." This session focuses on the best strategy to improve the academic outcomes–good Tier 1 instruction with student-centered feedback for teachers. It is highly important that school leaders take up the mantle to be instructional leaders rather than managerial ones. By attending this session, you will discover one school’s answer to these questions, as well as learn how the administrative team earned their license to coach. Through the collaborative efforts of the Instructional Coach and the Wade Hampton High School administrative team, a two year professional learning plan was developed that incorporates instructional coaching cycles and a school wide focus on rigor. The plan prioritizes developing the administrative team into instructional leaders who can confidently engage in coaching conversations with teachers. Participants in this session will discover how to create a vision for professional learning and coaching cycles that includes: a timeline of implementation, an observation schedule, an observation template, and training for administrators!
