@mdotzenroth A3: Frequently and it needs to be supportive. Frequent observations that are done in a caring manner in the best interest of student achievement will always be helpful. #schoolclimate6#opcpqp
@mdotzenroth Open dialogue and self-reflection by school leaders. Modelling these skills will go a long way to creating the culture you want within your school #schoolclimate6#opcpqp
@JTPQP As a school leader, you need to know your staff. Take the time to review their goals and leadership aspirations. Having the fireside chat at the start of the school year is helpful to open up these conversations. #OPCPQP#SchoolClimate2
@learn2relearn You encourage them to get on the bus. You get everyone you can to get on and start moving. When you have a core group helping students achieve, this is visible. Slow down and invite them on again!
@JTPQP Seek to understand and listen, listen, listen. Be available and visible throughout the school and willing to engage in difficult conversations when they arise. When discussing pedagogy and student achievement, educators must be willing and able to engage in these discussions.
