A Change Process that impacts adult culture and student achievement
“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.” - V. Lombardi.
As we continue to reflect on what defines success in some area schools, we see some of the same principles from Kotter’s Change Process, which begins with a sense of urgency. Learn how we create urgency through the lens of poverty and the stories of multiple elementary schools across two districts. Common steps in a change process, however, context really matters. Leave with tools to begin your own session. Resources linked here the day of the conference:
