Drive by Daniel Pink
This is an amazing book and I recommend everyone to read it. Our administrative team has read it, as well as our Professional Learning Advisory (teacher leadership). We will be trying the Fed Ex day in December. So check back in for what happened.
The Breakthrough Coach (TBC)
Any administrator working in a school building today should attend this training.
This is Malachi Pancoast the developer and trainer of TBC.
Malachi says...
"Great coaches never impact the outcome of a game by sitting behind a desk all day. Great coaches are on the field where the game is being played. Your job as an Instructional Leader is to be 'on the field' where the game is being played, and in your case, that's the classroom."

Performance Excellence for All Kids! (PEAK)
Every summer a number of our staff attend the PEAK institute in Vail, Colorado. We currently use PEAK strategies in every aspect of our building. However, PEAK is more than just strategies; it is a philosophy and approach we embrace in teaching kids using best practice until standards are met. You can see some connections in my commitments page. If you visited our building, you would see PEAK in every room, in every area, in every conversation.
