This event is planned for and by Assistant Principals who know what they need to improve learning in their schools. The entire day is a look at how the principal in a school can promote both academic success and the learning environment by building a community of school safety experts for 'their' schools. The presenters will share how they create a safe atmosphere, a strong principal, SRO, Principal and Assistant Principal triad, and a collaborative, supportive environment for all leaders and learners. The event is planned to support the struggles that Assistant Principals have as they attempt to do it all-Manage from the middle, Connect, and Inspire. The focus on our work on this day we be around how 'inspecting the little things can stop the bigger things from happening in crisis' and how to improve communication to inspire and improve learning, conducting walk-throughs that build relationships, and creating a community/school team to support student learning. This day is to support the assistant principal’s role as it exists in their individual school, and the role that all assistant principals may fill in any given year.
