How great would it be if our principals and instructional leaders didn't have to spend time or energy on things like budgets? Vendor relations? Compliance? Procurement? Operations? Or any of the myriad things pulling their attention away from student culture and learning? It is all too easy for schools to get caught up in all of the functions that need to happen just to make a school run. While these items are essential, they pull our focus from the most important factor for student learning: the classroom. Eric Sanchez, the Co-Founder and CEO for Henderson Collegiate, a high-performing public charter school located in Henderson, NC, is going to share how his organization, prior to Common Core, changed their model and corresponding org chart to ensure that the classroom was the highest priority for every school within his network. Join him to explore how to think about all of the school's resources in a way that aligns to the school's greatest purpose: student achievement.
