EXPLO Elevate

Helping schools build adaptability and #innovate into the future. The future is #VUCA and we support schools in navigating it.

Yes, in fact we are working on teacher evals! Reading @loomischaffee's thorough evaluation system resonated. In particular, making professional learning an annual occurrence, outside of formal eval years, in order to promote growth for all. Worth a read (and a watch).

"Determine the things in the school that should never change. It should be a short list". -- EXPLO Elevate's @jrosspeters's first step in strategic planning (and an exercise that EXPLO is taking on this week, in fact!)

We are always on the lookout for great resources around diversity, equity and inclusion. @tamisha_consult's new site provides many! Check them out today, on the first day of Women's History Month (and the rest of the year, too!)

[EXPLO Elevate @EXPLOElevate]

Throughout the month, we have really appreciated seeing the range of Black History Month programming from schools in our network, such as this exhibit from @HotchkissSchool. Thanks for sharing!

"If you think you can out-industrial-model free public schools, you’re delusional. If you don’t offer a differentiated service that’s radically different from what the public schools do for free, you’re not going to have a market."
- Part II of our conversation with @slooney.
