Description
The district walks in. Your School Improvement Plan says one thing. The classrooms show something else. You already knew it was possible. You just didn’t have a way to stay ahead of it.
You can go over it 100 times. Someone will still do something you never saw coming. That’s not a leadership failure. That’s a school. But when you don’t have a clear 30-day focus keeping the priority
visible for you and your team, you’re already behind before anyone walks
through the door.
School improvement plans are built for compliance, not for the way a school truly runs. They’re too big, too broad, and by the time you realize something got lost in the shuffle, there’s not much year left to do anything about it.
The principals who stay on top of their buildings have figured out how to work in shorter intervals. They’re not waiting until April to find out where things stand. They already know because they checked 30 days ago. And 30 days before that.
This workbook gives you that same structure. You open it and answer four questions: What’s competing for your attention right now? What’s the one thing worth your focus this month? Who’s doing it? How will you know
it’s working before the month is over? That’s your 30-day focus. On paper.
Done.
The bonus 30-Day Leadership Action Plan Template is where that focus becomes something your whole leadership team can see and work from.
Your AP knows what they are doing. You know what you are working on. When you sit down together at your next team meeting the plan is already in front of
you.
You come back every 30 days and do it again.
By the time April rolls around next year, you won’t be opening the School Improvement Plan and finding a section that never got touched. You’ll already know exactly where everything stands because you were checking.
Most principals finish this in under an hour. Open it today. Use it this week.
Built by Kim Bradley and Erica Glenn of Max Results LLC, two
former principals with 58 years of combined experience in schools.
