Discover the specific district-level leadership activities and behaviors that research shows are most connected to student and staff success, and how these responsibilities apply to the actions of superintendents, school boards, and central office staff.
During this 3-day session, participants will learn the principles of high-reliability systems and the actions used in healthcare, aviation, and other complex industries, and how these principles can be effectively applied to education systems. Determine the current state of your district systems and begin to map steps toward improving the quality of instruction and reducing variability in instructional quality within and among your schools. Participants will also receive extended virtual coaching during 2018-19 school year.
