Reimaging School Boards: Make Education Great!

Shannon and Hollye talk with Kristin Smith, mother, education advocate, and dedicated school board president in Durango, CO. Sounds nice, but...why would I listen to it? Great question! Because Kristin shares ideas and methodology that WORKS! She talks about how she worked with her board to change leadership, bring students onto the board and mentor them, get a superintendent that was the right fit for their district, and even how their school board is working to bring families and community into a closer relationship with school staff and leadership.We talk about the dilemma of identifying what a district wants to provide to best serve its students vs. what the state mandates will allow. Why "traditional" education models AREN'T working. Innovative learning styles that support student engagement. SEL: what it IS, and what it ISN'T. You will be captivated by Kristin's love for students and her insights into how she was a part of "turning the ship around" in her district.

A Sociological Look at School Administration

Dr. Michael Allen joins Hollye and Shannon to discuss school-based administration (aka principals). We talk about why students are going to the office and returning in minutes. Dr. Allen talks about observations and feedback. What is impairing principals from being present and tuned in? How do principals tap into the expertise of teachers and certified staff, create strong team dynamics, and elevate the workflow in their buildings? Dr. Allen's first degree was in sociology, and he uses this lens to shed light on why many schools are experiencing breakdowns and ways to heal them.Check out his book at https://brotherlylovebook.com/
