#ILJAC18 OUR STORY
Just five years ago . . . • We were hiring our 5 th superintendent in 3 years • We had a divided BOE • We had a referendum defeated and a bond increase petitioned out • We had 3 of 4 principals in new positions • 3 new BOE members after contested elections • We had over a 1 million dollar annual deficit • We had eliminated course offerings • We had eliminated junior high athletics TOTAL DYSFUNCTION
Mission Our mission is to educate students to be self-directed learners, collaborative workers, complex thinkers, quality producers, and community contributors.
WHY WE WERE ABLE TO CHANGE
#1
Commitment Conflict Resolution Team Balance and Informal Roles
Someone has to care deeply Everyone needs to forgive fast Personal beefs MUST lose out to the importance of the work
Norms that Guide our Behavior • Preparedness is not an option • Communication is key – both ways • The BOE employs one employee • The BOE drives behavior by establishing a mission, vision, and goals and holds its employee responsible for charging toward those ends. • We listen to our community, but understand our role as elected officials is not to solve individual problems but to create policies and systems that help alleviate issues • Supe also keeps open door and PHONE policy to ‘insulate’ us from issues that are truly not BOE work • We will orient and train all new BOE members
#4
Social media BOE presentations
IASB trainings/LeaderShop and Self-Assessments Working on BOE 360 eval Triple I HumanEx Myers-Briggs
Changes • Improvement Planning • BOE Presentations • Work With Data • Evaluate everyone • Policy • Examine finance Life is easier if we maintain the status quo – That is not your job
