  • High Performing Challenge Day #10: The main reason charter schools fail
    All failed charter schools can be traced back to the actions or non-actions of the governing board. With so much at stake, student learning, millions of dollars in public funds, and safety of all humans on the campus, what I have found is that when it comes to effective governance practices it has very little to do with the challenges of governance as it does with the behavior of the people on the board. Listen to this short overview of Indicator 10 and then grab yourself a copy of the book at www.tenindicators.com

  • High Performing Challenge Day #9: This is the freedom to your high performing school
    Every day, schools have hundreds, maybe thousands of individuals running through your school. Each one follows schedules, systems, and procedures that they have learned. If you have toured as many schools as I have, it becomes very clear when a school is disorganized. Listen to this episode and gain clear strategies and processes for ensuring operations is not impacting your academics.

  • High Performing Challenge Day #8: Everything matters here
    I am sure you have visited other schools but have you ever taken the time to be a guest in your own school? Have you ever arrived on campus through the car line when the families do? Ever look for a parking space during the middle of the day? Ever entered the building through the mindset and perspective of a first-time parent or job applicant? This Indicator is ALL about your care for the facility.
