Is your school's improvement plan a binder on a shelf, or a living system that drives results?

As leaders, we often focus on the what (better test scores, higher engagement), but not the how—the foundational systems that make it all possible. This week, I'm catching up with former Superintendent and Principal Principles owner, Stephanie McConnell, to dive into the powerful, often-overlooked small things that transform how we lead schools.

Drawing from her experience leading at every level—from elementary principal to superintendent—Stephanie shares her proven approach for designing and implementing sustainable systems that don't just put out fires, but guarantee better student outcomes and create stronger school cultures. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building a resilient foundation for lasting success, this episode is your blueprint.
