the polarization of education: as consultants at 瑞士vs喀麦隆亚盘赔率 , my teammates and i have the incredible opportunity to support districts around the country as they solve some of their toughest challenges. these challenges range from “how do we change our practices to increase students’ agency over their own learning?” to “how do we use quantitative and qualitative data to determine our priority areas over the next five years?” within each of those challenges, we encourage districts to use their resources strategically to advance educational equity, providing each child with what they need to develop to their fullest potential, regardless of their identity. equity is a choice–a choice that individuals and collective communities make to put students’ individual and unique needs first.

picture this...you are a principal conducting a classroom observation, witnessing a teacher skillfully utilize data to drive instruction, and form small groups tailored to individual student needs. suddenly, a crackling voice interrupts through the walkie-talkie, demanding your attention.you are needed in room 203 for a discipline matter, then in the girls' 5th grade bathroom for a busted pipe, and finally, to join an iep meeting. maybe this scenario also sounds familiar: you are a district leader, and you are in a strategy meeting to discuss the implementation of a new curriculum, yet you don’t have all of the key players in the room or a clear timeline to make decisions yet you continue to meet and get nothing accomplished.

imagine a school district as a ship navigating the vast and ever-changing ocean of education. just as sailors rely on the north star to navigate across uncharted waters, school districts can best stay on course with their own guiding light, an instructional framework.

district leadership | teacher retention
as students across the county prepare for the start of a new school year, conversations about how to address our national teacher shortage are becoming more frequent and urgent. many educators are calling for this conversation to be rebranded as a “teacher walkout” to highlight that teachers are leaving the field as a way to protest a system not built to empower them as decision-makers and innovators. this shift in language – from “teacher shortage” to “teacher walkout” – illuminates a key design element that districts can leverage proactively to respond to retention challenges: teacher agency.
