In this engaging episode, we sit down with Todd Bloomer to explore critical topics in educational leadership. Todd shares his experiences and strategies for effectively leading a large campus in the wake of COVID, addressing key issues like teacher retention and the importance of modeling leadership behavior. We dive into the concept of soliciting student voice and discuss the Bloomer Triangle of Success, focusing on how visibility and trust contribute to a thriving school environment. Todd also explores the evolving role of advocacy and its significance as the next frontier for administrators.

Additionally, Todd introduces his newly released book, The Blueprint, offering insights and practical advice for navigating the complexities of school leadership. Tune in for a conversation full of actionable strategies and inspiration for creating positive change in your educational community.

Originally from New York, Todd Bloomer now calls San Antonio, Texas, his home. Entering his 29th year in public education, Todd has held numerous roles, including teacher, coach, assistant principal, and middle school principal. For the past 5.5 years, he has been the principal of a large public high school in San Antonio.  Previously, he served for 4.5 years as principal of a large middle school.

Todd embodies the spirit of Teddy Roosevelt’s famous "Man in the Arena" speech. He is a current practitioner whose experiences include leading schools before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The fact that Todd is still in the arena gives his voice credibility. He still faces the daily challenges that all administrators have to address.   

Todd is married to his wonderful wife, Sharon, and they have five children. Todd and his family live in the community he serves, and all five of his children have attended and graduated from the high school he leads.  He takes great pride in shopping at the same grocery store as his students.  

Todd Bloomer is a highly sought-after speaker, coach, and consultant.   He can tailor his presentations, keynote addresses, and coaching sessions to meet your needs.  

Todd is proud that his first book, The Blueprint, was recently published and is now available on Amazon or his website.  The book provides insight and practical advice for school leaders not only to survive but thrive as a school leader.  

Let’s set up a time to discuss how he can help you develop a blueprint for a successful school year.  For more information, you can visit https://toddmbloomer.com
