“Since last we met, life has been like what book, movie, or
song title?
Example: “Since last
we met, life for me has
been like the movie “My
Big Fat Greek Wedding”
because both of my kids
are getting married in 2017!
Since Last We Met
Redesign the Organization
Redesign-
An intentional journey to sustainable school improvement
In this session I will:
Help you connect the dots between the six dimensions
Stick to what the literature says is essential for renewal
Prove “what” you do as a school leader matters most
Focus on primacy of school culture
Provide tools you can use right away
Let’s get started!
From Rick DuFour….
“We have the greatest generation of educators we’ve
ever seen in our schools right now.”
“LEARNING”- “a permanent
change in thinking or behavior.”
Leadership begins with YOU!
---Kouzes & Posner
Vision of Leading and Learning
Coherent Leaders….
Have clarity about what they value, what they believe…
ACT in alignment with those values and guiding principles

Leadership Metaphor Explorer
Think of an effective exemplary leader. How did
he/she practice leadership?(leadership culture)
Think of an ineffective leader. How did he/she practice
leadership?(leadership culture)
Have a conversation with practicing and aspiring
partner:
1. Why did you choose each card? What does the
metaphor mean to you?
2. How are your cards similar to or different from your
partners cards? Why?
Vision for Leadership
● What qualities do you remember about exemplary leaders
you’ve known?
● How do you want others to perceive you as a leader?
● What legacy of leadership do you want to leave in your
school?
Vision for Learning: Picture yourself walking down a hallway of your
school, and looking carefully at the work being done by teachers and
students in classrooms. If a high level of quality instruction is occurring,
what would you see in every classroom?
Vision for Learning
I used to think . . . Now I think . . .
I used to do . . . Now I will do . . .

JIGSAW “Creating a Culture of
Reciprocal Accountability”
For adult collaboration to generate productive solutions to persistent
learning and teaching problems, we must have groups that:
● Have a common understanding of the indicators of high quality
learning
● Share a common commitment to high quality learning for every
student
● Are capable of acting on that commitment efficiently and effectively
● Receive and use appropriate data and feedback to monitor their
own performance and adjust their efforts.
Adult Collaboration a Necessity
"Differences often bring with them unevenness,
expense, tensions, even conflict. But the
objective of our work as educators is
not to create a dissonance-free
environment but rather to create a
learning-full environment, to build a
community of learners."
Roland Barth-Learning by the Heart

Doing What Matters Most To Change
The Odds For Student Success
Simply Better
Whole language instruction, performance assessment, block
scheduling, looping, and detracking . . .
“It’s embarrassing. It really is. Not to mention depressing.
These are only a few of the “good ideas” that were discussed in
the pages of the Kappan--silver bullets that would enhance,
reform, and even save American education . . .It is embarrassing
because all these “good ideas” have produced very limited gains.
It is depressing because nearly all of them really were good ideas.
But the results of all this research and publication have been less
than impressive.(Wade Carpenter, 2000)
What Matters Most?
Guarantee challenging, engaging, and intentional
instruction.
Ensure curricular pathways to success.
Provide whole-child student supports.
Create high-performance school
cultures.
Develop data-driven,
high-reliability district systems.
What Matters Most?
1. A coherent instructional guidance system.
2. Development of the professional capacity of
faculty.
3. Stong parent-community-school ties.
4. A student-centered learning climate.
5. Leadership that drives change.

Attend to the “core” business of schooling:
Great teachers and teaching
Effective and ineffective teachers are spread
heterogeneously across the system.
Principal’s JOB #1 is to ensure high quality and
low variability within schools.
Create a culture of high expectations for academics
and behavior.
The “secret sauce” of improvement: school
culture.
More Bang for the Buck: Reducing
Variability in Teaching Quality
A McRel meta-analysis of research on effective school leaders found these
strong links between student success and leaders who:
Are directly involved in the design and implementation of curriculum,
instruction, and assessment practices.
Protect teachers from issues or influences that might otherwise detract from
their teaching.
Provide teachers with the resources and materials (including staff
development) they need to deliver high-quality instruction and effectively
manage their classrooms.
Source: (Marzano, Waters, and McNulty, 2005)
What Do Effective Leaders Do to Demonstrate Job #1?
That when a window is left broken in a building, it sends the message to
passersby that “no one cares and no one is in charge.” Soon more broken
windows appear, and, eventually, the whole neighborhood descends into
chaos.
Gladwell: Sometimes big problems “can be
reversed, can be tipped, by tinkering with the
smallest details of the immediate environment.”

“Can-Do” School Culture
So Much Reform, So Little Change (2008) Charles Payne
Consortium on Chicago School Research-compared 30 most highly rated
schools in Chicago with the 30 lowest performing schools in Chicago,
researchers discovered, “. . . questions related to the quality of relationships--in
particular, the level of trust and respect teachers have for one another--proved
to be one of the best predictors of school performance. (Payne 2006)
Dysfunctional School Culture
After survey collection of teachers in 100 schools:
In the same way individuals can develop learned helplessness,
organizations can be seduced by pervasive pessimism.
According to the pessimist view, voiced with a tired resignation,
“These kids can’t learn, and there is nothing, I can do about it, so
why worry about academic achievement …..” Academic
optimism, in stark contrast, views teachers as capable, students as
willing, parents as supportive, and the task as achievable. Hoy,
Tarter, and Hoy (2006)
Academic Optimism:
Powerful Predictor of Student Achievement
Defining the culture of high-performing schools:
Press for academic achievement
Collective efficacy (i.e. a shared belief among
teachers that they can help students succeed)
Faculty trust in parents and students
Source: Hoy, Tarter, and Hoy (2006)
Academic Optimism
“Four years of public school teaching--and ten
years as a principal--convinces me the nature
of relationships among adults who inhabit a
school has more to do with a school’s quality
and character, with the accomplishments of its
pupils and the professionalism of its teachers
than any other factor.--Roland Barth (2001)
It’s About Relationships!
Trust in Schools:
Studied 400 schools in Chicago and revealed that:
"Relational trust is central to building effective educational
communities."
Achievement gains were higher in schools
where a high level of relational trust existed.

RESULTS
1. Anonymity-No clue on hopes, dreams,
feelings and “personal story.”
1. Irrelevance-A feeling that workers don’t
make a difference and don’t know their
impact. How are they changing the lives of
others? How does the work they do impact others, the
organization, community, etc.
1. Immeasurement-No way to measure success for themselves
and the work that they are doing. How do they measure their
contribution or success?
Three Signs of a Miserable Job
Raising the quality and reducing the
variability of teaching across the school
Expectations for instruction are clearly and
consistently articulated across the school
Principals/Instructional leaders conduct
regular classroom observations with
follow-up coaching conversations
Teachers engage in professional
conversations that focus on improving
instructional practice.
High-Performance School Cultures: A Checklist
Creating a culture of high expectations for
academics and behavior
High expectations for learning and behavior
are clearly articulated and enforced.
In keeping with the Broken Windows theory,
the physical appearance of the school
conveys high expectations for student
learning.
All school personnel--from teachers to
support and janitorial staff--can connect
their work to student success.
1.If visitors walked into our school for the first time today, would they say it
exudes a positive culture, one that conveys high expectations for learning
and behavior where adults believe they can make a difference for
students?
2.What’s a small change we can make tomorrow to move our school closer
to becoming a high performing school culture?
3.How many improvement efforts are underway in
our school now? Are we making a few, measured
improvement efforts or are we thrashing at the
controls?
1.What else can I do to protect teachers’ time?
Reflecting On What Matters Most
The literature provides clarity…. do these things and student outcomes
will improve: (listed in order of correlation to student academic achievement gains) (Marzano, Waters & McNulty, 2005,
p.63)
1.Situational Awareness
2.Flexibility
3.Discipline, Outreach, Monitoring/Evaluating
4.Culture, Order, Resources, Knowledge of CIA, Input, Change Agent
5.Focus, Contingent Rewards, Intellectual Stimulation
6.Communication
7.Ideals/Beliefs
8.Involvement in CIA, Visibility, Optimizer
9.Affirmation
10.Relationship
There’s Nothing New Here!
“....knowing what is happening, distancing ego from daily
events...honestly appraising the state of the organization.” (Marzano, Waters & McNulty,
2005, p.60)
• Aware of what could go wrong from day to day
• Know informal groups and staff
relationships
• Aware of issues that have not surfaced
but could create discord
Situational Awareness
Flexibility
“...the extent to which leaders adapt their leadership behavior
to...current situation and...comfortable with dissent.” (Marzano, Waters
& McNulty, 2005, p.49)
• Associated with transformational leadership
• Being directive or nondirective as needed (defined autonomy)
• Encouraging expression of diverse and contrary opinions
• Comfortable...making major changes in how things are done
Leader as advocate and spokesperson to all stakeholders…
(Marzano, Waters & McNulty, 2005, p.58)
• Complies with all district and state mandates
• Advocate of school with parents
• Advocate of school with central office
• Advocate of school with community
Outreach
Fosters shared beliefs and a sense of community and
cooperation (Marzano, Waters & McNulty, 2005, p.58)
• Promotes a sense of well-being among teachers and staff
• Promotes cohesion among teachers and staff
• Develops an understanding of purpose among teachers and
staff
• Develops a shared vision of what the school could look like
• Promotes cooperation among teachers and staff
Culture
Establishes clear goals and keeps those goals in the forefront
of the school’s attention (Marzano, Waters & McNulty, 2005, p.58)
• Establishes high, concrete goals and expectations that all
students meet them
• Establishes high, concrete goals for curriculum, instruction,
and assessment practices within the school
• Establishes high, concrete goals for the general functioning of
the school
• Continually keeps attention on established goals
FOCUS
First Order - Incremental Change
Second Order - Deep Change (Innovation) (Marzano, Waters & McNulty, 2005, pp.65-75)
Change requires the correct level of leadership, the deeper the change...need
matching leadership techniques.
First & Second Order Change
Break
Tools For Redesign
• Get teachers focused on engagement
• Bring teachers together to analyze evidence of teaching
• Build a culture where staff take pride in their work and feel
responsible for student learning and achievement
• Find ways to reduce teacher isolation-classroom transparency
Instructional Leadership
• Instead of critiquing and scrutinizing teachers, provide
constructive feedback and support
• Develop partnerships to provide services/resources to parents
• Provide differentiated professional learning to teachers
 Content-subject matter coaches
 Pedagogy-Time to analyze student work
 Relationships with students
Build Capacity
• Assign students who are behind academically to effective
teachers.
• Provide access to deeper learning through rigorous instruction
and increase academic support.
• Develop early intervention systems to support struggling
students.
• Provide extended learning time-after school (but not more of
the same) and summer school.
• Respond to the non-academics of children-health, social and
emotional support, etc.
Implementing a Plan: Do More of What Works,
Less of What Doesn’t
Classroom walkthroughs to reduce Variance in Teaching Quality
1.Are teachers using research-based teaching strategies?
2.Do students understand their goals for learning?
3.Are students learning both basic and higher-order levels of knowledge?
4.Do student achievement data correlate with walkthrough data?
Have you identified the look fors in your district and school? Have they been
clearly identified? Does everyone know what they look like and sound like?
Talk with your table mates about what you have in place and what you need to
implement. What is your plan to reduce the variance in teaching quality at your
school?
See the Forest Through the Trees
A small-scale, short-term effort that results in quick,
measurable gains in achievement.
The term fractal is drawn from a phenomenon found throughout nature in such
things as ferns, snowflakes, and river networks, where the smallest component
of the system resembles the larger system.
Fractal Experiences
SMART Goal
Simple measure for collecting progress
Secure specific commitments from everyone
Monitor implementation of the effort
Review what happened, after specified period
Identify ways to sustain the successful change or to improve results
Identify a new “fractal”
