Leadership, noun
Allison Zmuda works with a handful of long-term clients on multi-year projects to support their school improvement plans through focus on the instructional core and student achievement. Each phase of the project is developed to clarify the problem-situation, articulate the vision of success and create multiple pathways to advance staff learning. While every project is unique, there are four core principles fundamental to these partnerships.
- The job of educators is to cause student learning as defined by mission and curriculum goals.
- The entire school staff is accountable for the achievement of every student.
- The tasks students are assigned and the feedback they receive impact the quality of their thinking.
- The engagement of students is impacted by the strength of their relationships with staff and correlations between schoolwork and future success.
