229. J. Lloyd Trump Lecture: What Do Those Who Have Already Moved From Low to Excellence in Performance Have to Tell Us?
Category: Leadership/Governance
Time: Sunday, March 3, 11:00am-12:30pm
Room: Room 313
School leadership is making an enormous positive difference in academic achievement for students. We ought to know much more about how the most powerful leaders come to be that way. The path to high student performance is really a simple one, if successful leaders are the models. It just could be that the way we think and our language for professional dialogue diverts our attention from readily available paths to student excellence. Our work in education has the potential to be rewarding both to us and to our students. It may be that our popular professional routines actually interfere with the release of our human powers. Our work as educators ought to be fulfilling. Minimum competency will not do. Our goals and achievements can and should go far beyond "competencies." Some educators have already shown us the way. This is about those lessons.
