In the final episode of the school year, the Class-Act Coaching crew is back together! Ashley is joined by co-hosts Jason and Dan to reflect on the biggest takeaways from this semester’s episodes — and this time, Dan takes the reins as host.

Together, they dive into three powerful themes that kept coming up in coaching conversations:

  • Collective Teacher Efficacy: What it really looks like in action — and how to tell if it’s missing.
  • Teacher Clarity: Why learning goals and success criteria matter, not for compliance, but for student understanding.
  • Authentic Engagement: The difference between fun and purposeful learning — and how to get students thinking deeply (not just moving around).

With examples from classrooms, podcast guests and even Ashley’s own students, this wrap-up connects all the dots and leaves you with plenty to reflect on. Plus, find out what Ashley told a student that she realized she should’ve been telling herself.

We’ll be back in the fall, but until then — enjoy your well-earned summer. And if you’re joining us at the Making Schools Work Conference in New Orleans (July 15–18), be sure to say hi!
