The average US principal spends less than 24% of the day on teaching and learning. SAM principals spend the majority of their time improving teaching and learning by using a SAM, a person trained in business skills or current staff member, to take the lead on management duties. Coaches work with the principal to not only increase the time spent on instructional leadership but make it effective. Reflective practice is a key element of this process and leads to a far more collegial relationship between administrators, teachers and parents. 26 7/16/2015 www.OurStudentsOurFuture.org District Challenges Time 27 7/16/2015 www.OurStudentsOurFuture.org Pulling It All Together: One Common Vision College and Career Readiness Strategic Plan (supports all aspects) Leadership and Teacher Development, Recruitment, Training, and Placement Career Ladder and Compensation Leadership and Teacher Evaluation RTTT EET WALLACE Value Added Achievement Results Common Core State Standards Foundation of Support • Performance Management System • Human Resource Capabilities • Employee communications Helping students achieve by helping teachers excel www.OurStudentsOurFuture.org • Curriculum Alignment THANK YOU!
