Our school culture (whether it's intentional or accidental) impacts so many vital aspects impacting the success of our schools. And building a thriving school culture can feel like herding cats... on roller skates... blindfolded (you get the picture). Especially when your great teachers keep leaving for greener pastures? You're not alone!
This episode's all about reframing the state test obsession and focusing on what REALLY matters - the humans in your school. Yes, you heard me, HUMANS. Virginia Gills, a principal who built a rockstar school culture, joins me to provide an unfiltered perspective on how she uniquely built a school culture that retains teachers. She shares a ton of concrete strategies that go beyond boring staff meetings- creating a work environment where her teachers feel seen and heard.
Here's the bottom line: When we prioritize trust, authentic connections, and maybe a sprinkle of risk-taking, we build something magical for our schools. So hit play, and let's get ready to ditch the negativity and toxic positivity and transform our schools into places where everyone thrives! So kiss the "kumbaya" goodbye and tune in for some real talk about building a school that inspires and empowers.
Some key points we will discuss are:
- School culture is about creating a positive and thriving environment where everyone feels welcome and supported.
- It is more than test scores and involves trust, staff development, and community engagement.
- Leaders should focus on the strengths of their staff and celebrate their achievements.
- Building relationships with students and families is important.
- A healthy school culture can lead to less teacher turnover and increased student engagement.
