  This

  week,
• 0:06
  we
• 0:07
  test
• 0:07
  them.

  Because

  coherence
• 0:09
  doesn't

  live

  decisions

  adult
• 0:16
  make,
• 0:17
  especially
• 0:18
  under
• 0:19
  pressure.
• 0:20
  If
• 0:20
  innovation
• 0:21
  is
• 0:21
  going
• 0:21
  to
• 0:21
  deepen
• 0:22
  learning,
• 0:22
  it
• 0:23
  has

  to

  the

  episode,
• 0:43
  we

  defined

  coherent
• 0:45
  human
• 0:45
  systems
• 0:46
  not

  as
• 0:47
  control,
• 0:48
  not

  as

  uniformity,

  but

  as

  aligned

  adult

  decisions
• 0:52
  that

  consistently

  produce

  the

  student

• 0:56
  we

• 0:58
  If
• 0:58
  that's

  true,
• 0:59
  then

  coherence
• 1:00
  doesn't

  live

  It

  decisions.
• 1:08
  Schools
• 1:08
  don't
• 1:09
  drift
• 1:09
  because
• 1:10
  people
• 1:10
  stop
• 1:10
  caring.
• 1:11
  They
• 1:12
  drift
• 1:12
  because
• 1:12
  under

  pressure,
• 1:14
  adults
• 1:14
  make

  compound.
• 1:22
  When

  time

  is

  short,
• 1:24
  what

  gets
• 1:25
  reinforced?
• 1:26
  When

  energy
• 1:27
  is

  low,
• 1:28
  what

  gets

  protected
• 1:30
  and
• 1:30
  what
• 1:30
  quietly

  gets

  lowered.
• 1:33
  When
• 1:33
  innovation
• 1:34
  is
• 1:34
  introduced,
• 1:35
  does
• 1:35
  it
• 1:35
  reshape
• 1:36
  instruction,
• 1:36
  or
• 1:37
  does
• 1:37
  it
• 1:37
  sit
• 1:37
  beside
• 1:38
  it?
• 1:39
  Coherence
• 1:39
  is

  not

  built

  in

• 1:42
  It's

  built

  of

• 1:45
  Today,
• 1:45
  we're
• 1:45
  not
• 1:45
  introducing
• 1:46
  a
• 1:46
  new
• 1:46
  program.
• 1:47
  We're
• 1:48
  examining
• 1:48
  alignment.
• 1:49
  We're
• 1:49
  examining
• 1:50
  humanity.
• 1:52
  We're
• 1:52
  examining
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  daily
• 1:53
  choices
• 1:54
  that
• 1:55
  determine
• 1:55
  whether

  Welcome

  It's
• 2:16
  another
• 2:16
  day

  in

  amazing

  wheelhouse
• 2:22
  team,
• 2:23
  Dr.
• 2:23
  Monroe
• 2:24
  is
• 2:24
  unable
• 2:24
  to
• 2:24
  be
• 2:25
  here
• 2:25
  with
• 2:25
  us
• 2:25

  Yay.
• 2:31
  Good
• 2:32
  morning.
• 2:33
  Good
• 2:33
  morning.
• 2:34
  You
• 2:34
  threw
• 2:34
  me
• 2:34
  off,
• 2:35
  Michael.
• 2:35
  Sorry.
• 2:37
  Yay.
• 2:38
  Two
• 2:38
  of
• 2:38
  my
• 2:38
  favorite
• 2:39
  humans.
• 2:40
  So
• 2:40
  missing
• 2:41
  my
• 2:42
  sister
• 2:42
  Alicia.
• 2:43
  Dr.
• 2:44
  Alicia
• 2:44
  Monroe.
• 2:45
  So
• 2:46
  greatly
• 2:47
  missed.
• 2:48
  We
• 2:48
  missed
• 2:48
  her
• 2:49
  last
• 2:49
  week,
• 2:49
  and
• 2:50
  we
• 2:50
  missed
• 2:50
  her.
• 2:50
  We're
• 2:50
  missing
• 2:51
  her
• 2:51
  again
• 2:51
  this
• 2:51
  week.
• 2:52
  She's
• 2:52
  out
• 2:52
  there
• 2:52
  just
• 2:53
  doing
• 2:53
  phenomenal,
• 2:55
  phenomenal
• 2:56
  work
• 2:56
  as
• 2:57
  always.
• 2:57
  Yeah,
• 2:58
  I
• 2:58
  guess
• 2:58
  we
• 2:58
  can
• 2:59
  say,
• 2:59
  okay,
• 3:01
  we
• 3:01
  will
• 3:01
  get
• 3:01
  her
• 3:01
  back.
• 3:02
  You
• 3:02
  can't
• 3:02
  join
• 3:03
  us.
• 3:05
  Absolutely.
• 3:06
  We
• 3:07
  will
• 3:08
  fix
• 3:08
  our
• 3:08
  schedule.
• 3:09
  We'll
• 3:09
  do
• 3:09
  whatever
• 3:09
  we
• 3:10
  need
• 3:10
  to
• 3:10
  do
• 3:10
  to
• 3:10
  bring
• 3:10
  her
• 3:10
  back
• 3:11
  for
• 3:11
  episode
• 3:12
  three.
• 3:13
  So,
• 3:13
  you
• 3:13
  know,
• 3:14
  the
• 3:15
  season
• 3:15
  opener
• 3:16
  was
• 3:16
  a
• 3:16
  really,
• 3:16
  really
• 3:17
  powerful
• 3:18
  conversation
• 3:19
  around
• 3:20
  what
• 3:20
  we
• 3:21
  mean
• 3:21
  by
• 3:22
  coherent
• 3:23
  human
• 3:24
  systems.
• 3:24
  Right?
• 3:24
  Not
• 3:25
  as
• 3:25
  control,
• 3:27
  not
• 3:27
  as
• 3:27
  uniformity,
• 3:29
  but
• 3:29
  as
• 3:29
  aligned
• 3:30
  adult
• 3:30
  decisions
• 3:31
  that
• 3:31
  consistently
• 3:32
  produce
• 3:33
  the
• 3:33
  student
• 3:34
  experience
• 3:35
  we
• 3:35
  claim
• 3:36
  to
• 3:36
  value.
• 3:37
  That
• 3:37
  seems
• 3:38
  pretty
• 3:38
  simple
• 3:39
  and
• 3:40
  yet,
• 3:40
  oh,
• 3:40
  so
• 3:40
  complicated,
• 3:41
  right?
• 3:42
  If
• 3:42
  that's
• 3:42
  true,
• 3:43
  then
• 3:44
  coherence
• 3:44
  doesn't
• 3:45
  live
• 3:45
  in
• 3:45
  a
• 3:45
  strategy
• 3:46
  statement.
• 3:47
  It
• 3:48
  lives
• 3:48
  in
• 3:48
  Tuesday.
• 3:50
  It
• 3:50
  lives
• 3:51
  in
• 3:51
  daily
• 3:52
  adult
• 3:53
  choices.
• 3:56
  Because
• 3:56
  schools
• 3:57
  don't
• 3:57
  drift
• 3:58
  because
• 3:59
  people
• 3:59
  stop
• 3:59
  caring.
• 4:01
  They
• 4:01
  drift.
• 4:02
  Which
• 4:02
  means
• 4:03
  they
• 4:03
  move
• 4:03
  away
• 4:04
  from
• 4:04
  that
• 4:04
  coherence
• 4:06
  because
• 4:06
  under
• 4:06
  pressure,
• 4:07
  which
• 4:07
  we
• 4:08
  talked
• 4:08
  about
• 4:08
  last
• 4:08
  week,
• 4:08
  didn't
• 4:09
  we,
• 4:09
  Michael?
• 4:10
  Adults
• 4:10
  make
• 4:10
  small
• 4:11
  decisions
• 4:12
  that
• 4:13
  contradict
• 4:14
  their
• 4:14
  stated
• 4:15
  priorities,
• 4:16
  and
• 4:17
  those
• 4:17
  decisions
• 4:18
  compound.
• 4:20
  When
• 4:20
  time
• 4:20
  is
• 4:21
  short,
• 4:21
  what
• 4:22
  gets
• 4:22
  reinforced.
• 4:23
  When
• 4:24
  energy
• 4:24
  is
• 4:24
  low,
• 4:26
  what
• 4:26
  gets
• 4:26
  protected
• 4:27
  and
• 4:28
  what
• 4:28
  gets
• 4:28
  lowered.
• 4:29
  When
• 4:30
  innovation
• 4:31
  is
• 4:31
  introduced,
• 4:34
  does
• 4:34
  it
• 4:34
  change
• 4:35
  instruction
• 4:37
  or
• 4:37
  does
• 4:37
  it
• 4:37
  just
• 4:38
  sit
• 4:38
  beside
• 4:38
  it?
• 4:40
  Coherence
• 4:41
  is
• 4:41
  not
• 4:41
  built
• 4:42
  in
• 4:42
  moments
• 4:42
  of
• 4:42
  inspiration.
• 4:43
  It's
• 4:43
  built
• 4:43
  in
• 4:44
  patterns
• 4:45
  of
• 4:45
  decision
• 4:45
  making.
• 4:46
  I
• 4:46
  love
• 4:47
  that.
• 4:47
  Coherence
• 4:48
  is
• 4:48
  not
• 4:49
  built
• 4:49
  in
• 4:49
  moments
• 4:50
  of
• 4:50
  inspiration.
• 4:51
  It's
• 4:52
  built
• 4:52
  in
• 4:53
  patterns
• 4:54
  of
• 4:54
  decision
• 4:55
  making.
• 4:56
  Today,
• 4:57
  again,
• 4:57
  we're
• 4:57
  not
• 4:58
  talking
• 4:58
  about
• 4:58
  new
• 4:58
  programs.
• 5:00
  We're
• 5:00
  talking
• 5:00
  about
• 5:01
  alignment.
• 5:02
  We're
• 5:02
  talking
• 5:02
  about
• 5:03
  humanity.
• 5:04
  We're
• 5:05
  talking
• 5:05
  about
• 5:05
  the
• 5:05
  daily
• 5:06
  choices
• 5:06
  that
• 5:07
  determine
• 5:08
  whether
• 5:09
  innovation
• 5:12
  deepens
• 5:12
  learning
• 5:14
  or
• 5:14
  quietly
• 5:15
  drifts
• 5:16
  away.
• 5:21
  Any
• 5:21
  thoughts?
• 5:23
  Well,
• 5:24
  you
• 5:24
  said
• 5:24
  a
• 5:24
  lot.
• 5:26
  You
• 5:26
  tend
• 5:26
  to
• 5:26
  do
• 5:27
  this
• 5:27
  to
• 5:27
  us.
• 5:28
  You
• 5:28
  put
• 5:29
  so
• 5:29
  much
• 5:29
  out
• 5:30
  there
• 5:30
  in
• 5:31
  such
• 5:31
  an
• 5:31
  element,
• 5:31
  eloquent
• 5:32
  way.
• 5:33
  What'd
• 5:33
  you
• 5:33
  like?
• 5:34
  You
• 5:34
  know,
• 5:35
  the.
• 5:36
  The
• 5:37
  drift
• 5:37
  piece.
• 5:38
  You
• 5:38
  know,
• 5:38
  I.
• 5:38
  I
• 5:38
  wrote
• 5:39
  that.
• 5:39
  That
• 5:40
  word
• 5:40
  down
• 5:41
  in.
• 5:41
  In
• 5:42
  my
• 5:42
  notebook
• 5:42
  here
• 5:42
  in
• 5:43
  all
• 5:43
  capital
• 5:43
  letters.
• 5:45
  And
• 5:45
  that's
• 5:46
  really
• 5:46
  about
• 5:47
  moving
• 5:47
  away
• 5:48
  from
• 5:49
  coherence
• 5:50
  and
• 5:51
  that
• 5:51
  it
• 5:51
  lives
• 5:52
  in
• 5:52
  daily
• 5:53
  adult
• 5:54
  choices.
• 5:56
  So
• 5:57
  thinking
• 5:58
  about,
• 5:59
  sometimes
• 6:01
  things
• 6:01
  happen
• 6:02
  pretty
• 6:03
  abruptly,
• 6:04
  and
• 6:05
  in
• 6:05
  our
• 6:05
  educational
• 6:06
  systems,
• 6:09
  there
• 6:09
  are
• 6:09
  things
• 6:10
  that
• 6:10
  happen
• 6:11
  that
• 6:13
  seem
• 6:13
  to
• 6:14
  halt
• 6:14
  or
• 6:14
  stop
• 6:15
  adult
• 6:16
  choices.
• 6:17
  But
• 6:18
  more
• 6:18
  often
• 6:19
  than
• 6:19
  not,
• 6:20
  it
• 6:20
  really
• 6:20
  lives
• 6:21
  in
• 6:21
  those
• 6:21
  daily.
• 6:23
  The
• 6:23
  daily
• 6:24
  choices,
• 6:25
  those
• 6:25
  very
• 6:25
  small,
• 6:27
  subtle,
• 6:29
  sometimes
• 6:30
  unseen,
• 6:32
  unnoticed
• 6:35
  until
• 6:36
  we're
• 6:36
  in
• 6:36
  this
• 6:36
  space
• 6:37
  of,
• 6:38
  oh,
• 6:38
  my
• 6:38
  God,
• 6:39
  what
• 6:39
  happened?
• 6:41
  How
• 6:41
  did
• 6:41
  we
• 6:42
  get
• 6:42
  here?
• 6:43
  What
• 6:43
  did
• 6:43
  that
• 6:43
  look
• 6:44
  like?
• 6:44
  So
• 6:44
  that
• 6:45
  those
• 6:46
  patterns
• 6:46
  of
• 6:47
  decision
• 6:47
  making,
• 6:47
  that
• 6:48
  was
• 6:48
  another
• 6:50
  peace
• 6:50
  within
• 6:51
  everything
• 6:51
  that
• 6:51
  you.
• 6:52
  You
• 6:53
  opened
• 6:53
  us
• 6:53
  with.
• 6:55
  It's.
• 6:55
  I
• 6:56
  just
• 6:56
  have
• 6:56
  so
• 6:57
  many
• 7:00
  examples
• 7:01
  experiences
• 7:02
  running
• 7:02
  through
• 7:03
  my.
• 7:03
  My
• 7:04
  head
• 7:05
  around
• 7:06
  those
• 7:07
  small
• 7:08
  daily
• 7:10
  adult
• 7:10
  choices.
• 7:13
  Yeah,
• 7:13
  I
• 7:14
  love
• 7:14
  the
• 7:14
  word
• 7:14
  drift.
• 7:16
  As
• 7:17
  I
• 7:17
  developed
• 7:17
  this
• 7:18
  thing
• 7:18
  called
• 7:18
  tactical
• 7:19
  leadership,
• 7:20
  which
• 7:20
  is
• 7:20
  part
• 7:21
  of
• 7:21
  the
• 7:21
  whole
• 7:21
  students
• 7:22
  matter
• 7:22
  ecosystem.
• 7:23
  That
• 7:23
  word
• 7:23
  is
• 7:24
  huge.
• 7:24
  Drift.
• 7:25
  I
• 7:25
  think
• 7:26
  it's
• 7:26
  just
• 7:26
  powerful
• 7:27
  image
• 7:27
  because
• 7:28
  we
• 7:28
  can
• 7:28
  all
• 7:28
  envision
• 7:29
  being
• 7:30
  somewhere
• 7:30
  and
• 7:31
  drifting
• 7:32
  away
• 7:36
  from
• 7:37
  this
• 7:37
  line,
• 7:38
  drifting
• 7:38
  away
• 7:38
  from
• 7:39
  our
• 7:39
  values,
• 7:40
  drifting
• 7:40
  away
• 7:41
  from
• 7:41
  what
• 7:41
  we
• 7:42
  intend
• 7:42
  to.
• 7:43
  I
• 7:43
  love
• 7:43
  that
• 7:43
  word.
• 7:44
  I
• 7:44
  think
• 7:44
  it's
• 7:44
  powerful
• 7:45
  and
• 7:45
  very.
• 7:47
  It
• 7:47
  paints
• 7:48
  a
• 7:48
  really,
• 7:48
  really
• 7:48
  strong
• 7:49
  picture.
• 7:49
  Right.
• 7:50
  And
• 7:51
  it's
• 7:51
  absolutely
• 7:52
  about
• 7:52
  the
• 7:53
  small
• 7:53
  decisions.
• 7:53
  Right.
• 7:54
  Every
• 7:54
  decision
• 7:54
  that
• 7:55
  we
• 7:55
  make
• 7:56
  either
• 7:57
  moves
• 7:57
  us
• 7:57
  closer
• 7:58
  or
• 7:59
  by
• 7:59
  contrast.
• 7:59
  Right.
• 8:00
  Begins
• 8:01
  that
• 8:01
  drift
• 8:01
  process.
• 8:02
  Michael,
• 8:03
  any
• 8:03
  thoughts
• 8:03
  before
• 8:03
  we
• 8:04
  jump
• 8:04
  in?
• 8:04
  Yeah,
• 8:05
  I
• 8:05
  think
• 8:05
  about
• 8:06
  the
• 8:06
  beginning
• 8:06
  of
• 8:06
  every
• 8:07
  school
• 8:07
  year
• 8:09
  for
• 8:10
  leadership
• 8:10
  teams
• 8:11
  in
• 8:11
  schools
• 8:11
  across
• 8:12
  the
• 8:12
  country
• 8:13
  and
• 8:13
  the
• 8:14
  new
• 8:14
  initiatives
• 8:16
  that
• 8:16
  are
• 8:17
  on
• 8:17
  the
• 8:17
  docket,
• 8:18
  on
• 8:18
  the
• 8:18
  agenda,
• 8:19
  and
• 8:20
  the
• 8:20
  rollout
• 8:21
  that
• 8:22
  must
• 8:22
  happen
• 8:23
  and
• 8:23
  the
• 8:23
  anticipated
• 8:24
  pushback
• 8:26
  from
• 8:27
  a
• 8:27
  returning
• 8:29
  staff
• 8:30
  that,
• 8:31
  you
• 8:31
  know,
• 8:32
  thought
• 8:33
  that
• 8:33
  the
• 8:33
  prior
• 8:34
  season's
• 8:34
  initiatives
• 8:35
  were.
• 8:36
  Were
• 8:37
  going
• 8:37
  to
• 8:37
  be
• 8:37
  continued.
• 8:38
  But
• 8:38
  yet
• 8:39
  here's
• 8:39
  a
• 8:39
  fresh
• 8:39
  batch
• 8:40
  like
• 8:40
  rocks
• 8:41
  in
• 8:41
  the
• 8:41
  farmer's
• 8:42
  field.
• 8:43
  Every
• 8:43
  spring,
• 8:44
  the
• 8:44
  thaw
• 8:46
  gives
• 8:46
  us
• 8:46
  a
• 8:46
  new
• 8:47
  crop
• 8:47
  of
• 8:47
  stones.
• 8:50
  If
• 8:50
  you
• 8:50
  don't
• 8:51
  know
• 8:51
  your
• 8:51
  North
• 8:52
  Star,
• 8:52
  if
• 8:53
  you
• 8:53
  don't
• 8:53
  know
• 8:54
  that
• 8:54
  central
• 8:55
  cluster
• 8:56
  of
• 8:56
  things
• 8:56
  that
• 8:57
  are
• 8:57
  non
• 8:57
  negotiable,
• 8:58
  that
• 8:58
  we
• 8:59
  all
• 8:59
  hold
• 8:59
  dearly
• 9:00
  together,
• 9:01
  then
• 9:02
  you
• 9:02
  have
• 9:03
  no
• 9:03
  thread
• 9:04
  of
• 9:04
  to
• 9:04
  weave
• 9:06
  the
• 9:06
  newest
• 9:07
  necessary
• 9:08
  effort
• 9:10
  with
• 9:11
  everything
• 9:11
  that
• 9:12
  is
• 9:12
  currently
• 9:13
  operating.
• 9:14
  You
• 9:14
  have
• 9:14
  no
• 9:14
  way
• 9:14
  to
• 9:15
  weave
• 9:15
  it
• 9:15
  in.
• 9:15
  And
• 9:16
  so
• 9:16
  it
• 9:16
  becomes
• 9:17
  one
• 9:17
  outlier
• 9:17
  after
• 9:18
  another
• 9:18
  that
• 9:18
  people
• 9:18
  are
• 9:19
  supposed
• 9:19
  to,
• 9:19
  like
• 9:19
  plates
• 9:20
  on
• 9:20
  the
• 9:20
  end
• 9:20
  of
• 9:20
  sticks
• 9:21
  keep
• 9:21
  spinning
• 9:22
  magically
• 9:23
  and
• 9:23
  it's
• 9:24
  exhausting.
• 9:24
  And
• 9:25
  we
• 9:25
  feel
• 9:25
  ourselves
• 9:25
  moving
• 9:26
  and
• 9:26
  we
• 9:26
  mistake
• 9:27
  that
• 9:27
  for
• 9:28
  purposeful
• 9:29
  progress.
• 9:30
  But
• 9:30
  it's
• 9:31
  drift
• 9:32
  because
• 9:33
  we
• 9:33
  have
• 9:34
  no
• 9:34
  center.
• 9:34
  The
• 9:34
  center
• 9:35
  can't
• 9:35
  hold,
• 9:35
  we
• 9:36
  don't
• 9:36
  tend
• 9:36
  it.
• 9:37
  You
• 9:37
  know,
• 9:38
  those
• 9:39
  are
• 9:39
  the
• 9:39
  thoughts
• 9:39
  I'm
• 9:39
  having.
• 9:41
  Yeah,
• 9:41
  I
• 9:41
  mean,
• 9:41
  tactical
• 9:42
  leaders
• 9:42
  again,
• 9:43
  we'll
• 9:44
  talk
• 9:44
  more
• 9:44
  about
• 9:44
  that
• 9:45
  term
• 9:45
  later.
• 9:45
  But
• 9:46
  tactical
• 9:46
  leaders,
• 9:47
  leaders
• 9:48
  who
• 9:48
  do
• 9:48
  this
• 9:48
  work
• 9:49
  really,
• 9:49
  really
• 9:49
  well,
• 9:49
  they
• 9:50
  understand
• 9:52
  intimately
• 9:52
  what
• 9:53
  their
• 9:53
  moral
• 9:53
  purpose
• 9:54
  is.
• 9:54
  They
• 9:55
  understand
• 9:56
  what
• 9:56
  the
• 9:56
  North
• 9:57
  Star,
• 9:58
  what
• 9:59
  their
• 9:59
  guiding
• 9:59
  North
• 9:59
  Star
• 10:00
  is,
• 10:01
  and
• 10:01
  everything
• 10:01
  that
• 10:02
  they
• 10:02
  do
• 10:03
  is
• 10:03
  aligned
• 10:04
  to
• 10:04
  that.
• 10:06
  We
• 10:06
  know
• 10:07
  that
• 10:07
  there's
• 10:08
  a
• 10:08
  lack
• 10:08
  of
• 10:08
  coherence
• 10:10
  in
• 10:10
  so
• 10:11
  many
• 10:11
  places
• 10:11
  and
• 10:12
  people
• 10:12
  trying
• 10:13
  to
• 10:13
  do
• 10:13
  really
• 10:13
  good
• 10:13
  work,
• 10:15
  but
• 10:15
  there's
• 10:15
  a
• 10:16
  lack
• 10:16
  of.
• 10:16
  It's
• 10:16
  easy
• 10:17
  to
• 10:17
  say.
• 10:19
  It's
• 10:19
  easy
• 10:20
  to
• 10:20
  say
• 10:20
  in
• 10:20
  the
• 10:20
  summer
• 10:21
  when
• 10:21
  there
• 10:21
  are
• 10:21
  no
• 10:21
  students
• 10:21
  around
• 10:22
  and
• 10:22
  you
• 10:22
  know,
• 10:23
  and
• 10:24
  you're
• 10:24
  trying
• 10:24
  to
• 10:24
  figure
• 10:24
  out
• 10:25
  what
• 10:26
  it
• 10:26
  is
• 10:26
  you
• 10:26
  value,
• 10:27
  right?
• 10:28
  I've
• 10:28
  led
• 10:29
  people
• 10:29
  through
• 10:29
  these
• 10:29
  conversations
• 10:30
  and
• 10:31
  they're
• 10:31
  very,
• 10:31
  very
• 10:32
  powerful,
• 10:32
  right?
• 10:33
  Because
• 10:34
  adults
• 10:34
  in
• 10:35
  education
• 10:35
  care
• 10:36
  deeply
• 10:36
  about
• 10:36
  what
• 10:37
  they're
• 10:37
  doing
• 10:37
  and
• 10:40
  they
• 10:41
  can
• 10:41
  define
• 10:41
  what
• 10:42
  they
• 10:42
  value.
• 10:42
  And
• 10:42
  then
• 10:43
  the
• 10:43
  world
• 10:43
  hits.
• 10:45
  Teachers
• 10:45
  come
• 10:46
  back,
• 10:46
  kids
• 10:46
  come
• 10:46
  back.
• 10:47
  There's
• 10:48
  all
• 10:48
  these
• 10:48
  clamoring
• 10:52
  pressure,
• 10:52
  right?
• 10:53
  Pressure
• 10:55
  that
• 10:56
  can,
• 10:57
  if
• 10:57
  we're
• 10:57
  not
• 10:57
  careful,
• 10:59
  can
• 11:00
  cause
• 11:00
  drift,
• 11:00
  right?
• 11:01
  But
• 11:01
  here's
• 11:01
  the
• 11:02
  reality,
• 11:02
  right?
• 11:03
  Every
• 11:03
  one
• 11:04
  of
• 11:04
  us,
• 11:05
  whether
• 11:05
  we're
• 11:05
  a
• 11:06
  classroom
• 11:06
  teacher
• 11:06
  or
• 11:07
  a
• 11:07
  leader,
• 11:08
  we're
• 11:08
  in
• 11:08
  control
• 11:09
  of
• 11:09
  all
• 11:10
  the
• 11:10
  small
• 11:10
  decisions
• 11:11
  we
• 11:11
  make
• 11:14
  on
• 11:14
  a
• 11:14
  daily
• 11:15
  basis.
• 11:15
  And
• 11:16
  so
• 11:17
  let's
• 11:17
  think
• 11:17
  about
• 11:17
  for
• 11:18
  a
• 11:18
  moment
• 11:20
  some
• 11:20
  examples,
• 11:21
  some
• 11:21
  commonly
• 11:23
  seen
• 11:23
  examples
• 11:24
  of
• 11:25
  gaps
• 11:25
  between
• 11:26
  what
• 11:27
  we
• 11:27
  say
• 11:27
  we
• 11:28
  value
• 11:30
  and
• 11:30
  what
• 11:30
  students
• 11:31
  might
• 11:31
  actually
• 11:32
  experience.
• 11:33
  What
• 11:34
  are
• 11:34
  some
• 11:34
  examples
• 11:34
  of
• 11:35
  some
• 11:35
  of
• 11:35
  those
• 11:36
  gaps?
• 11:39
  One
• 11:39
  that
• 11:40
  comes
• 11:40
  to
• 11:40
  mind,
• 11:40
  you
• 11:41
  know,
• 11:41
  in
• 11:41
  conversations
• 11:42
  I've
• 11:42
  had
• 11:42
  with
• 11:43
  instructional
• 11:44
  staff
• 11:45
  across
• 11:45
  districts
• 11:46
  around
• 11:48
  empathy
• 11:50
  as
• 11:50
  just
• 11:50
  an
• 11:51
  intentional
• 11:53
  schooling
• 11:54
  practice.
• 11:57
  Every
• 11:58
  last
• 11:58
  educator
• 11:59
  I
• 11:59
  spoke
• 11:59
  with
• 12:00
  talked
• 12:00
  about
• 12:00
  the
• 12:00
  importance
• 12:01
  of
• 12:02
  understanding
• 12:03
  the
• 12:04
  student
• 12:04
  experience
• 12:05
  and
• 12:06
  then
• 12:06
  trying
• 12:06
  to
• 12:07
  achieve
• 12:08
  that
• 12:08
  understanding
• 12:08
  in
• 12:09
  a
• 12:09
  45
• 12:09
  minute
• 12:10
  period
• 12:11
  where
• 12:11
  a
• 12:12
  scope
• 12:12
  and
• 12:12
  sequence
• 12:14
  must
• 12:15
  be
• 12:16
  attended
• 12:16
  to
• 12:17
  and
• 12:18
  all
• 12:19
  of
• 12:19
  the
• 12:19
  interruptions
• 12:20
  that
• 12:20
  are
• 12:20
  going
• 12:20
  to
• 12:21
  occur
• 12:21
  in
• 12:21
  that
• 12:21
  45
• 12:22
  minute
• 12:23
  class,
• 12:24
  all
• 12:24
  the
• 12:25
  content
• 12:26
  that
• 12:26
  must
• 12:27
  be
• 12:27
  covered.
• 12:28
  All
• 12:28
  the
• 12:29
  pressure
• 12:29
  to
• 12:29
  prioritize
• 12:30
  that
• 12:31
  content
• 12:32
  day
• 12:32
  in
• 12:32
  and
• 12:33
  day
• 12:33
  out,
• 12:34
  and
• 12:34
  all
• 12:34
  of
• 12:34
  the
• 12:35
  students
• 12:35
  who
• 12:35
  populate
• 12:36
  that
• 12:36
  classroom.
• 12:38
  And
• 12:39
  that
• 12:39
  number
• 12:40
  tends
• 12:40
  to
• 12:40
  grow.
• 12:41
  It
• 12:41
  never
• 12:42
  tends
• 12:42
  to
• 12:42
  decrease.
• 12:45
  So
• 12:46
  a
• 12:46
  gap
• 12:46
  begins
• 12:47
  to
• 12:47
  grow
• 12:48
  between
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  things
• 12:49
  we
• 12:50
  are
• 12:50
  told
• 12:50
  and
• 12:50
  pressured
• 12:51
  to
• 12:52
  attend
• 12:52
  to
• 12:52
  because
• 12:52
  we
• 12:53
  have
• 12:53
  to,
• 12:55
  and
• 12:56
  the
• 12:56
  things
• 12:56
  that
• 12:56
  we
• 12:57
  hold
• 12:57
  inside
• 12:58
  our
• 12:58
  hearts
• 12:59
  as
• 12:59
  what
• 13:00
  we
• 13:00
  feel
• 13:00
  ought
• 13:01
  to
• 13:01
  be
• 13:01
  the
• 13:02
  true
• 13:02
  priorities
• 13:03
  that
• 13:04
  do
• 13:04
  not
• 13:04
  get
• 13:04
  acknowledged.
• 13:06
  Not
• 13:06
  publicly,
• 13:07
  not
• 13:07
  by
• 13:07
  leadership,
• 13:08
  not
• 13:09
  materially,
• 13:11
  maybe
• 13:11
  in
• 13:11
  terms
• 13:12
  of
• 13:12
  lip
• 13:12
  service,
• 13:13
  but
• 13:13
  not
• 13:14
  in
• 13:14
  terms
• 13:15
  of
• 13:15
  practice
• 13:16
  and
• 13:16
  leadership
• 13:17
  support
• 13:18
  of
• 13:18
  instructors
• 13:19
  in
• 13:19
  the
• 13:19
  instructional
• 13:20
  environment.
• 13:20
  I
• 13:21
  think
• 13:21
  about
• 13:21
  that.
• 13:22
  And
• 13:22
  so
• 13:23
  some
• 13:23
  of
• 13:23
  the
• 13:23
  gaps
• 13:24
  come
• 13:24
  from
• 13:26
  leadership
• 13:26
  pressure,
• 13:28
  system
• 13:29
  pressure,
• 13:30
  but
• 13:30
  some
• 13:30
  of
• 13:30
  the
• 13:30
  gaps
• 13:31
  come
• 13:31
  from
• 13:32
  the
• 13:32
  decisions
• 13:32
  that
• 13:33
  we
• 13:33
  make
• 13:33
  as
• 13:33
  classroom
• 13:34
  teachers.
• 13:34
  In
• 13:34
  the
• 13:34
  classroom,
• 13:37
  how
• 13:37
  do
• 13:37
  I.
• 13:40
  How
• 13:40
  do
• 13:40
  I
• 13:42
  grade
• 13:43
  student
• 13:43
  work
• 13:44
  that
• 13:44
  is
• 13:45
  far
• 13:45
  from
• 13:46
  the
• 13:46
  goal
• 13:48
  and
• 13:49
  yet
• 13:50
  make
• 13:50
  sure
• 13:50
  that
• 13:51
  that
• 13:51
  student
• 13:52
  feels
• 13:53
  that
• 13:53
  they
• 13:54
  belong,
• 13:54
  that
• 13:54
  they
• 13:54
  value,
• 13:55
  that
• 13:55
  they
• 13:55
  matter,
• 13:55
  that
• 13:56
  they
• 13:56
  can
• 13:56
  do
• 13:57
  it?
• 13:57
  Right?
• 13:57
  How
• 13:57
  do
• 13:58
  we
• 13:58
  do
• 13:58
  that?
• 13:58
  How
• 13:58
  do
• 13:59
  we
• 13:59
  do
• 13:59
  that
• 13:59
  in
• 14:00
  a
• 14:00
  way
• 14:00
  that
• 14:00
  affirms
• 14:02
  a
• 14:02
  student
• 14:03
  but
• 14:04
  also
• 14:04
  letting
• 14:04
  them
• 14:04
  know
• 14:04
  that
• 14:05
  their
• 14:05
  performance
• 14:06
  was.
• 14:08
  We
• 14:08
  got
• 14:08
  some
• 14:08
  work
• 14:09
  to
• 14:09
  do.
• 14:09
  Right?
• 14:10
  We
• 14:10
  got
• 14:10
  some
• 14:10
  work
• 14:10
  to
• 14:11
  do
• 14:11
  in
• 14:11
  that
• 14:11
  area.
• 14:12
  How
• 14:12
  do
• 14:12
  we
• 14:13
  decisions
• 14:13
  we
• 14:13
  make
• 14:14
  about
• 14:14
  instruction?
• 14:15
  How
• 14:16
  do
• 14:16
  we
• 14:16
  think
• 14:16
  about
• 14:17
  each
• 14:17
  student's
• 14:18
  progress
• 14:18
  if
• 14:19
  we
• 14:19
  rely
• 14:19
  heavily
• 14:21
  on
• 14:21
  whole
• 14:21
  group
• 14:21
  direct
• 14:22
  instruction?
• 14:24
  Those
• 14:24
  are
• 14:24
  decisions
• 14:24
  we
• 14:25
  make.
• 14:25
  That's
• 14:25
  right.
• 14:26
  Those
• 14:26
  are
• 14:27
  decisions
• 14:27
  we
• 14:27
  make.
• 14:28
  Nobody
• 14:29
  comes
• 14:29
  into
• 14:29
  my
• 14:29
  classroom
• 14:30
  and
• 14:30
  tells
• 14:30
  me,
• 14:31
  you
• 14:31
  know,
• 14:31
  that
• 14:32
  I
• 14:32
  can't
• 14:32
  put
• 14:32
  kids
• 14:32
  in
• 14:33
  small
• 14:33
  groups.
• 14:34
  Right,
• 14:35
  right.
• 14:35
  I've
• 14:35
  not
• 14:35
  heard
• 14:36
  that
• 14:36
  before.
• 14:36
  Right.
• 14:37
  Kathy,
• 14:38
  what
• 14:38
  are
• 14:38
  your
• 14:38
  thoughts?
• 14:38
  What
• 14:39
  are
• 14:39
  some
• 14:39
  common
• 14:40
  gaps
• 14:40
  that
• 14:40
  we
• 14:41
  see
• 14:41
  between
• 14:41
  what
• 14:42
  we
• 14:42
  say
• 14:42
  we
• 14:42
  value
• 14:43
  and
• 14:44
  what
• 14:44
  kids
• 14:44
  actually
• 14:44
  experience
• 14:45
  in
• 14:45
  our
• 14:45
  classrooms?
• 14:47
  I
• 14:47
  think
• 14:48
  as
• 14:49
  Michael
• 14:49
  was
• 14:49
  talking,
• 14:50
  I
• 14:50
  was
• 14:50
  thinking
• 14:51
  about,
• 14:51
  you
• 14:52
  know,
• 14:52
  those,
• 14:53
  the
• 14:53
  scheduling.
• 14:54
  Right.
• 14:55
  We
• 14:55
  control
• 14:55
  scheduling
• 14:57
  and
• 14:57
  what
• 14:58
  that
• 14:58
  looks
• 14:59
  like.
• 14:59
  And
• 14:59
  we
• 14:59
  control
• 15:01
  as
• 15:01
  leaders,
• 15:02
  especially
• 15:03
  what
• 15:05
  we.
• 15:06
  How
• 15:07
  we
• 15:08
  either
• 15:09
  value
• 15:09
  or
• 15:10
  we
• 15:10
  do
• 15:10
  not
• 15:11
  value
• 15:11
  that
• 15:12
  time.
• 15:13
  So
• 15:13
  if
• 15:13
  we're
• 15:14
  locked
• 15:14
  into
• 15:14
  that
• 15:15
  45
• 15:15
  minute
• 15:16
  period,
• 15:17
  how
• 15:17
  often
• 15:19
  am
• 15:19
  I
• 15:20
  interrupting
• 15:21
  that
• 15:21
  as
• 15:21
  the
• 15:22
  leader?
• 15:22
  How
• 15:22
  often
• 15:23
  is
• 15:23
  the
• 15:23
  office
• 15:24
  interrupting
• 15:25
  that?
• 15:25
  How
• 15:25
  often
• 15:26
  are
• 15:26
  we
• 15:26
  making
• 15:27
  announcements?
• 15:28
  How
• 15:28
  often
• 15:28
  are
• 15:29
  we
• 15:30
  scheduling
• 15:32
  various
• 15:32
  assemblies
• 15:33
  that
• 15:33
  don't
• 15:34
  need
• 15:34
  to
• 15:34
  happen,
• 15:35
  you
• 15:36
  know,
• 15:36
  for.
• 15:36
  Why
• 15:36
  are
• 15:37
  we
• 15:37
  thinking
• 15:37
  through
• 15:38
  those
• 15:38
  pieces?
• 15:39
  So
• 15:40
  simple
• 15:41
  things
• 15:41
  to
• 15:42
  me
• 15:42
  that
• 15:44
  scream,
• 15:46
  well,
• 15:46
  okay,
• 15:47
  you're
• 15:47
  telling
• 15:47
  me
• 15:48
  one
• 15:48
  thing.
• 15:49
  You're
• 15:49
  saying
• 15:51
  we
• 15:51
  have
• 15:51
  to
• 15:52
  adhere
• 15:52
  to
• 15:52
  this
• 15:53
  timeline,
• 15:54
  to
• 15:54
  these
• 15:54
  pieces.
• 15:57
  I'm
• 15:57
  attempting
• 15:58
  to
• 15:59
  do
• 15:59
  that.
• 15:59
  I'm
• 15:59
  attempting
• 16:00
  to
• 16:01
  provide
• 16:02
  the
• 16:02
  highest
• 16:03
  quality
• 16:03
  of
• 16:03
  instruction
• 16:04
  during
• 16:04
  this
• 16:04
  time.
• 16:06
  But
• 16:06
  then
• 16:06
  your
• 16:06
  actions
• 16:07
  as
• 16:07
  a
• 16:08
  leader
• 16:08
  are
• 16:09
  interrupting
• 16:09
  that.
• 16:12
  The
• 16:12
  simp
• 16:13
  to
• 16:13
  me,
• 16:13
  one
• 16:13
  of
• 16:14
  the
• 16:14
  simplest
• 16:15
  changes
• 16:16
  within
• 16:18
  what
• 16:18
  we
• 16:19
  say
• 16:19
  versus
• 16:20
  what
• 16:21
  we
• 16:21
  do.
• 16:24
  So
• 16:24
  what
• 16:24
  I
• 16:24
  hear
• 16:24
  a
• 16:24
  lot
• 16:25
  from
• 16:25
  teachers
• 16:27
  is
• 16:28
  when
• 16:28
  they
• 16:28
  feel
• 16:28
  the
• 16:28
  pressure
• 16:29
  of
• 16:29
  time,
• 16:32
  whether
• 16:32
  it's
• 16:32
  a
• 16:32
  45
• 16:33
  minute
• 16:33
  period,
• 16:34
  whether
• 16:34
  it's.
• 16:34
  It
• 16:35
  doesn't
• 16:35
  matter.
• 16:35
  Right.
• 16:35
  It
• 16:35
  doesn't
• 16:36
  matter
• 16:36
  what
• 16:36
  the
• 16:36
  pressure,
• 16:37
  what
• 16:37
  the
• 16:37
  specifics
• 16:38
  of
• 16:38
  the
• 16:38
  pressure
• 16:39
  are.
• 16:40
  But
• 16:40
  when
• 16:40
  they
• 16:41
  feel
• 16:41
  the
• 16:41
  pressure
• 16:42
  of
• 16:42
  time,
• 16:44
  they
• 16:44
  feel
• 16:45
  compelled
• 16:48
  to
• 16:48
  focus
• 16:48
  on
• 16:49
  the
• 16:49
  curriculum
• 16:52
  and
• 16:52
  not
• 16:53
  focus
• 16:54
  on
• 16:54
  the
• 16:54
  humanity.
• 16:57
  And
• 16:58
  I
• 16:58
  want
• 16:58
  to
• 16:58
  talk
• 16:58
  just
• 16:59
  a
• 16:59
  second
• 16:59
  about
• 17:00
  why
• 17:00
  they
• 17:00
  feel
• 17:01
  that.
• 17:02
  Because
• 17:02
  their
• 17:02
  kids
• 17:03
  get
• 17:03
  measured.
• 17:04
  Yes,
• 17:04
  absolutely.
• 17:05
  Absolutely.
• 17:06
  And
• 17:06
  when
• 17:07
  the
• 17:07
  kids
• 17:07
  are
• 17:07
  getting
• 17:07
  measured,
• 17:08
  they're
• 17:09
  vulnerable
• 17:10
  in
• 17:10
  so
• 17:11
  many
• 17:11
  ways.
• 17:12
  So
• 17:12
  when
• 17:13
  time
• 17:13
  is
• 17:13
  short,
• 17:14
  I.
• 17:15
  We
• 17:15
  feel
• 17:15
  this
• 17:15
  as
• 17:16
  teachers.
• 17:16
  Right.
• 17:16
  All
• 17:16
  of
• 17:16
  us
• 17:17
  have
• 17:17
  felt
• 17:17
  this
• 17:18
  we
• 17:18
  are
• 17:18
  going
• 17:19
  to
• 17:19
  do
• 17:19
  for
• 17:19
  our
• 17:19
  kids
• 17:20
  in
• 17:21
  a
• 17:21
  way
• 17:21
  that
• 17:21
  makes
• 17:21
  them
• 17:22
  less
• 17:22
  vulnerable
• 17:23
  in
• 17:24
  all
• 17:24
  these
• 17:24
  other
• 17:24
  ways.
• 17:25
  So
• 17:26
  this
• 17:26
  is
• 17:26
  where
• 17:26
  we
• 17:27
  put
• 17:27
  our
• 17:27
  focus.
• 17:28
  The
• 17:28
  other
• 17:28
  thing
• 17:28
  I
• 17:29
  think
• 17:29
  about
• 17:29
  is
• 17:30
  of
• 17:30
  all
• 17:30
  the
• 17:30
  professional
• 17:31
  development
• 17:31
  that
• 17:32
  is
• 17:32
  afforded
• 17:33
  when
• 17:33
  there
• 17:34
  isn't
• 17:34
  a
• 17:34
  clear
• 17:35
  cluster
• 17:36
  of
• 17:36
  values
• 17:37
  at
• 17:37
  the
• 17:37
  heart,
• 17:37
  at
• 17:38
  the
• 17:38
  center,
• 17:38
  that
• 17:40
  that
• 17:41
  elevates
• 17:41
  and
• 17:42
  focuses
• 17:43
  on
• 17:43
  humanity
• 17:44
  and
• 17:44
  dignity
• 17:46
  as
• 17:46
  core
• 17:48
  components
• 17:48
  of
• 17:49
  the
• 17:49
  student
• 17:49
  experience.
• 17:51
  Then
• 17:51
  we
• 17:51
  don't
• 17:52
  have
• 17:52
  professional
• 17:52
  development
• 17:53
  that
• 17:54
  helps
• 17:54
  teachers
• 17:55
  share
• 17:55
  strategies
• 17:56
  that
• 17:56
  create
• 17:57
  through
• 17:58
  quick
• 17:58
  protocols
• 17:59
  and
• 17:59
  routines
• 18:00
  throughout
• 18:00
  a
• 18:01
  class,
• 18:02
  a
• 18:02
  sense
• 18:02
  of
• 18:02
  belonging,
• 18:03
  play,
• 18:04
  fun,
• 18:04
  joy.
• 18:05
  Each
• 18:05
  of
• 18:05
  us
• 18:06
  has
• 18:06
  seen
• 18:06
  it
• 18:06
  when
• 18:06
  we've
• 18:06
  gone
• 18:07
  into
• 18:07
  classrooms
• 18:08
  where
• 18:08
  the
• 18:09
  content
• 18:09
  that
• 18:09
  gets
• 18:10
  covered
• 18:10
  is
• 18:10
  mind
• 18:11
  boggling.
• 18:12
  But
• 18:12
  the
• 18:12
  playfulness,
• 18:13
  the
• 18:14
  joy,
• 18:14
  the
• 18:15
  ongoing
• 18:15
  conversation
• 18:16
  that
• 18:16
  shows
• 18:17
  really
• 18:18
  vibrant
• 18:18
  relationships
• 18:19
  among
• 18:19
  the
• 18:20
  students
• 18:20
  and
• 18:20
  the
• 18:21
  lead
• 18:21
  instructor
• 18:22
  is
• 18:22
  so
• 18:22
  clearly
• 18:23
  evident
• 18:23
  in
• 18:24
  that
• 18:24
  room.
• 18:27
  Those
• 18:28
  practices
• 18:28
  about
• 18:30
  how
• 18:30
  we
• 18:30
  do
• 18:30
  a
• 18:31
  little
• 18:31
  bit
• 18:31
  of
• 18:32
  all
• 18:32
  of
• 18:32
  the
• 18:32
  essential
• 18:33
  things
• 18:33
  every
• 18:34
  single
• 18:34
  day.
• 18:35
  And
• 18:35
  on
• 18:35
  days
• 18:36
  where
• 18:36
  we
• 18:36
  can
• 18:36
  we
• 18:36
  dig
• 18:37
  in
• 18:37
  deeper
• 18:37
  on
• 18:37
  the
• 18:37
  stuff
• 18:38
  we
• 18:38
  know
• 18:38
  matters
• 18:38
  most
• 18:40
  that
• 18:40
  isn't
• 18:41
  part
• 18:41
  of
• 18:41
  the
• 18:42
  professional
• 18:42
  development.
• 18:43
  Most
• 18:43
  often
• 18:44
  when
• 18:44
  I'm
• 18:44
  going
• 18:45
  into
• 18:45
  schools.
• 18:47
  So
• 18:47
  of
• 18:47
  course
• 18:48
  I
• 18:48
  argue.
• 18:49
  Absolutely.
• 18:49
  I
• 18:50
  argue
• 18:50
  that
• 18:53
  curricular
• 18:53
  learning
• 18:54
  and
• 18:54
  humanity
• 18:55
  are
• 18:55
  completely
• 18:56
  intertwined
• 18:56
  and
• 18:57
  cannot
• 18:57
  be
• 18:57
  separated.
• 18:58
  Correct.
• 19:00
  You
• 19:00
  cannot
• 19:01
  teach
• 19:01
  algebra
• 19:04
  and
• 19:05
  forget
• 19:05
  you're
• 19:05
  teaching
• 19:06
  humans,
• 19:07
  but
• 19:10
  you
• 19:10
  can.
• 19:11
  And
• 19:11
  it
• 19:11
  happens.
• 19:12
  We've
• 19:12
  seen
• 19:12
  it,
• 19:13
  sir.
• 19:13
  Maybe,
• 19:14
  but
• 19:15
  it
• 19:15
  doesn't
• 19:15
  work
• 19:15
  very
• 19:16
  well.
• 19:16
  It
• 19:17
  doesn't.
• 19:17
  It
• 19:18
  does.
• 19:19
  It
• 19:19
  doesn't
• 19:19
  work
• 19:19
  very
• 19:20
  well.
• 19:20
  Before
• 19:20
  you
• 19:21
  finish
• 19:21
  this,
• 19:22
  like
• 19:22
  when
• 19:22
  I
• 19:22
  thought
• 19:23
  you
• 19:23
  were
• 19:23
  ready
• 19:23
  to
• 19:23
  jump
• 19:24
  through
• 19:24
  this.
• 19:26
  Oh,
• 19:27
  sir,
• 19:27
  sir,
• 19:27
  sir.
• 19:28
  Yes.
• 19:29
  So
• 19:29
  this
• 19:30
  is
• 19:30
  one
• 19:30
  of
• 19:30
  the
• 19:30
  points
• 19:30
  of
• 19:31
  innovation
• 19:31
  rooted
• 19:32
  in
• 19:32
  humanity.
• 19:32
  Right.
• 19:32
  That
• 19:33
  we
• 19:33
  can't
• 19:33
  separate
• 19:35
  or
• 19:35
  we
• 19:35
  have
• 19:36
  to
• 19:36
  stop
• 19:36
  separating.
• 19:37
  I
• 19:37
  should
• 19:37
  say,
• 19:37
  let
• 19:37
  me
• 19:38
  say
• 19:38
  it
• 19:38
  differently.
• 19:39
  We
• 19:39
  got
• 19:39
  to
• 19:40
  stop
• 19:40
  separating
• 19:41
  the
• 19:41
  curriculum
• 19:42
  from
• 19:43
  the
• 19:43
  humanity.
• 19:44
  Right.
• 19:45
  That
• 19:45
  we
• 19:45
  have.
• 19:46
  That
• 19:46
  they're
• 19:47
  not.
• 19:47
  It's
• 19:47
  not
• 19:47
  one
• 19:48
  or
• 19:48
  the
• 19:48
  other.
• 19:49
  Even
• 19:49
  though
• 19:49
  our
• 19:49
  teachers
• 19:50
  feel
• 19:50
  pressured,
• 19:51
  even
• 19:51
  though.
• 19:52
  Right.
• 19:52
  There's
• 19:53
  a
• 19:53
  lot
• 19:53
  of
• 19:53
  pressure
• 19:53
  to
• 19:53
  separate
• 19:54
  those
• 19:54
  two
• 19:54
  things
• 19:55
  and
• 19:55
  to
• 19:55
  say,
• 19:55
  oh,
• 19:56
  I
• 19:56
  can't
• 19:56
  do
• 19:57
  this,
• 19:58
  I
• 19:58
  can't
• 19:59
  build
• 19:59
  these
• 19:59
  relationships
• 20:00
  with
• 20:00
  these
• 20:01
  children
• 20:01
  because
• 20:01
  I've
• 20:02
  got
• 20:02
  to
• 20:02
  do
• 20:02
  blah,
• 20:02
  blah,
• 20:02
  blah,
• 20:03
  blah,
• 20:03
  blah.
• 20:03
  We
• 20:03
  can
• 20:03
  do
• 20:04
  it.
• 20:04
  At
• 20:04
  the
• 20:04
  same
• 20:04
  time,
• 20:06
  we
• 20:06
  may
• 20:06
  have
• 20:06
  to
• 20:06
  rethink
• 20:07
  some
• 20:07
  things,
• 20:07
  we
• 20:07
  may
• 20:08
  have
• 20:08
  to
• 20:09
  learn
• 20:09
  some
• 20:09
  new
• 20:10
  things,
• 20:10
  but
• 20:11
  it's
• 20:11
  not
• 20:12
  one
• 20:12
  or
• 20:13
  the
• 20:13
  other.
• 20:15
  And
• 20:15
  even
• 20:15
  if
• 20:15
  it
• 20:15
  were,
• 20:17
  focusing
• 20:18
  on
• 20:18
  the
• 20:18
  curriculum
• 20:18
  alone
• 20:19
  has
• 20:19
  not
• 20:19
  provided
• 20:20
  the
• 20:20
  results
• 20:20
  that
• 20:21
  we
• 20:21
  thought
• 20:21
  it
• 20:21
  was
• 20:21
  gonna.
• 20:23
  Right?
• 20:23
  So
• 20:23
  if
• 20:24
  we
• 20:24
  just
• 20:24
  focus
• 20:25
  on
• 20:25
  reading
• 20:26
  in
• 20:27
  third
• 20:27
  grade
• 20:27
  and
• 20:28
  we
• 20:28
  forget
• 20:28
  the
• 20:28
  humanity
• 20:29
  part,
• 20:29
  our
• 20:30
  kids
• 20:30
  aren't
• 20:30
  going
• 20:30
  to
• 20:30
  be
• 20:31
  readers.
• 20:34
  The
• 20:35
  solution
• 20:36
  to
• 20:36
  increasing
• 20:37
  test
• 20:37
  scores
• 20:38
  is
• 20:38
  not
• 20:38
  just
• 20:39
  found
• 20:39
  in
• 20:40
  literacy
• 20:41
  strategies
• 20:41
  alone.
• 20:44
  It's
• 20:44
  this
• 20:44
  other
• 20:44
  pieces
• 20:45
  that
• 20:45
  go
• 20:45
  with
• 20:45
  it
• 20:46
  as
• 20:46
  well.
• 20:48
  Our
• 20:48
  last
• 20:49
  episode
• 20:50
  or
• 20:50
  opening
• 20:52
  episode
• 20:52
  to
• 20:53
  season
• 20:53
  12,
• 20:54
  you
• 20:55
  had
• 20:55
  a
• 20:55
  line
• 20:56
  that
• 20:56
  you
• 20:56
  shared
• 20:57
  with
• 20:57
  us
• 20:57
  about
• 20:59
  theatrics.
• 21:00
  Yes,
• 21:01
  ma'.
• 21:01
  Am.
• 21:02
  What
• 21:02
  was
• 21:02
  that
• 21:02
  line
• 21:02
  again?
• 21:04
  That
• 21:04
  line,
• 21:04
  Mrs.
• 21:05
  Moni,
• 21:05
  was
• 21:05
  innovation.
• 21:07
  That
• 21:08
  doesn't
• 21:08
  change.
• 21:09
  The
• 21:09
  student
• 21:10
  experience
• 21:11
  is
• 21:12
  just
• 21:13
  theater,
• 21:14
  which
• 21:15
  is
• 21:15
  what
• 21:15
  you
• 21:16
  just
• 21:16
  described.
• 21:17
  Right.
• 21:17
  So
• 21:18
  those
• 21:18
  theatrics
• 21:21
  lead
• 21:21
  to
• 21:23
  more
• 21:23
  absenteeism,
• 21:26
  students
• 21:27
  not
• 21:27
  feeling
• 21:27
  a
• 21:28
  sense
• 21:28
  of
• 21:28
  belonging,
• 21:30
  those
• 21:30
  chasing
• 21:31
  of
• 21:31
  shiny
• 21:32
  objects
• 21:33
  which
• 21:33
  we
• 21:33
  talked
• 21:34
  about
• 21:34
  previously,
• 21:36
  and
• 21:37
  this
• 21:38
  disconnected
• 21:40
  experience
• 21:41
  for
• 21:42
  the
• 21:42
  adults.
• 21:43
  So,
• 21:43
  Michael,
• 21:43
  you
• 21:43
  were
• 21:44
  talking
• 21:44
  about
• 21:44
  that
• 21:44
  professional
• 21:45
  learning
• 21:45
  and
• 21:46
  what
• 21:46
  does
• 21:46
  that
• 21:46
  look
• 21:46
  like?
• 21:46
  And
• 21:47
  how
• 21:47
  are
• 21:47
  we
• 21:47
  spending
• 21:47
  our
• 21:48
  time?
• 21:51
  Our
• 21:51
  teachers
• 21:52
  know
• 21:52
  when
• 21:53
  you
• 21:53
  know,
• 21:53
  everyone
• 21:54
  within
• 21:54
  the
• 21:54
  organization
• 21:55
  knows
• 21:55
  when
• 21:56
  they,
• 21:56
  when
• 21:56
  they
• 21:57
  start
• 21:57
  back
• 21:58
  at
• 21:58
  the
• 21:58
  beginning
• 21:58
  of
• 21:59
  a
• 21:59
  school
• 22:00
  year,
• 22:01
  it's
• 22:02
  the
• 22:02
  whispers
• 22:02
  in
• 22:03
  the
• 22:03
  room
• 22:04
  are
• 22:04
  often,
• 22:05
  okay,
• 22:05
  what's
• 22:06
  the
• 22:06
  next
• 22:07
  shiny
• 22:08
  object
• 22:08
  going
• 22:09
  to
• 22:09
  be
• 22:09
  this
• 22:09
  year?
• 22:10
  Where's.
• 22:10
  Oh,
• 22:11
  the
• 22:11
  pendulum
• 22:12
  swinging
• 22:12
  yet
• 22:12
  again.
• 22:13
  What
• 22:14
  does
• 22:14
  that
• 22:14
  look
• 22:14
  like?
• 22:15
  Because
• 22:17
  we're
• 22:18
  not
• 22:18
  innovating
• 22:19
  in
• 22:19
  a
• 22:20
  way
• 22:20
  that
• 22:20
  changes
• 22:21
  that
• 22:21
  student
• 22:22
  experience,
• 22:23
  but
• 22:24
  instead
• 22:26
  performative.
• 22:27
  We're
• 22:27
  being,
• 22:27
  you
• 22:27
  know,
• 22:28
  we're,
• 22:28
  we're
• 22:28
  performing
• 22:29
  and
• 22:31
  our
• 22:31
  students
• 22:33
  are
• 22:33
  the
• 22:33
  ones
• 22:34
  that
• 22:34
  are
• 22:35
  failing.
• 22:35
  And
• 22:36
  those
• 22:37
  test
• 22:38
  result
• 22:38
  results
• 22:40
  often
• 22:41
  show
• 22:41
  that
• 22:41
  because
• 22:43
  I
• 22:43
  don't.
• 22:44
  It's
• 22:44
  mind
• 22:44
  boggling
• 22:45
  to
• 22:45
  me
• 22:46
  how
• 22:47
  you
• 22:48
  can
• 22:48
  separate
• 22:49
  the
• 22:49
  two.
• 22:50
  So
• 22:50
  back
• 22:50
  to
• 22:50
  us
• 22:50
  pouncing
• 22:51
  on
• 22:51
  our
• 22:51
  dear
• 22:52
  friend
• 22:52
  Grant.
• 22:56
  I'm
• 22:56
  a
• 22:56
  big
• 22:57
  boy.
• 22:57
  I
• 22:58
  know.
• 22:58
  We
• 22:58
  know
• 22:58
  that.
• 22:59
  So
• 22:59
  that's
• 22:59
  why
• 22:59
  we
• 22:59
  could
• 23:00
  do
• 23:00
  it
• 23:01
  both
• 23:01
  of
• 23:01
  us,
• 23:01
  at
• 23:01
  the
• 23:02
  same
• 23:02
  time.
• 23:04
  How
• 23:04
  you
• 23:05
  can
• 23:05
  separate
• 23:06
  that
• 23:06
  and
• 23:06
  knowing
• 23:07
  that
• 23:08
  when
• 23:08
  students
• 23:09
  feel
• 23:10
  that
• 23:10
  sense
• 23:11
  of
• 23:11
  belonging,
• 23:11
  when
• 23:12
  they
• 23:12
  know
• 23:14
  that
• 23:15
  they
• 23:15
  matter,
• 23:17
  all
• 23:17
  of
• 23:17
  the
• 23:18
  other
• 23:18
  stuff
• 23:18
  comes.
• 23:20
  I
• 23:21
  don't
• 23:21
  know
• 23:21
  how
• 23:22
  we
• 23:23
  aren't
• 23:23
  getting
• 23:24
  that.
• 23:24
  What
• 23:24
  is
• 23:25
  it?
• 23:25
  What's
• 23:26
  the
• 23:26
  shift
• 23:27
  that
• 23:27
  needs
• 23:28
  to
• 23:28
  occur
• 23:30
  in
• 23:30
  order
• 23:31
  for
• 23:31
  this
• 23:32
  drift
• 23:34
  to
• 23:34
  stop,
• 23:36
  for
• 23:36
  those
• 23:38
  daily
• 23:38
  adult
• 23:39
  choices
• 23:41
  to
• 23:42
  stop?
• 23:43
  I'm
• 23:44
  going
• 23:44
  to
• 23:44
  give
• 23:44
  a
• 23:44
  shout
• 23:44
  out
• 23:45
  to
• 23:47
  just
• 23:47
  an
• 23:47
  incredible
• 23:48
  educator.
• 23:49
  I
• 23:49
  had
• 23:49
  the
• 23:49
  honor
• 23:50
  of
• 23:50
  working
• 23:50
  with
• 23:50
  Michelle
• 23:51
  Crisafoli,
• 23:52
  who
• 23:52
  used
• 23:52
  to
• 23:52
  Say
• 23:52
  to
• 23:53
  me,
• 23:54
  you
• 23:54
  know,
• 23:54
  our
• 23:54
  job
• 23:54
  is
• 23:55
  to
• 23:55
  learn
• 23:55
  the
• 23:55
  dance
• 23:55
  of
• 23:56
  every
• 23:56
  child.
• 23:57
  That's
• 23:58
  our
• 23:58
  job.
• 23:59
  And
• 24:00
  when
• 24:00
  we
• 24:01
  begin
• 24:01
  to
• 24:01
  understand
• 24:03
  not
• 24:04
  just
• 24:04
  the
• 24:04
  moves
• 24:05
  the
• 24:05
  learner
• 24:05
  is
• 24:06
  making,
• 24:06
  but
• 24:06
  why,
• 24:08
  and
• 24:08
  we
• 24:08
  stay
• 24:08
  with
• 24:09
  it
• 24:09
  until
• 24:10
  we
• 24:10
  get
• 24:10
  a
• 24:10
  greater
• 24:11
  sense
• 24:11
  through
• 24:12
  that
• 24:12
  conversation
• 24:13
  and
• 24:13
  dialogue
• 24:14
  with
• 24:14
  the
• 24:14
  child
• 24:15
  and
• 24:15
  everybody
• 24:15
  who
• 24:16
  works
• 24:16
  with
• 24:16
  the
• 24:16
  child
• 24:17
  and
• 24:17
  the
• 24:17
  family,
• 24:19
  and
• 24:19
  then
• 24:19
  all
• 24:20
  of
• 24:20
  a
• 24:20
  sudden
• 24:21
  we
• 24:21
  can
• 24:22
  do
• 24:22
  the
• 24:22
  dance
• 24:22
  with
• 24:22
  them,
• 24:24
  we
• 24:24
  can
• 24:24
  dance
• 24:25
  with
• 24:25
  them.
• 24:26
  Then
• 24:27
  the
• 24:28
  child
• 24:28
  is
• 24:29
  ready
• 24:29
  to
• 24:29
  feel
• 24:30
  the
• 24:30
  belief
• 24:30
  we
• 24:31
  have
• 24:32
  in
• 24:32
  their
• 24:32
  potential.
• 24:34
  And
• 24:35
  that
• 24:35
  belief
• 24:36
  becomes
• 24:37
  the
• 24:37
  game
• 24:37
  changer
• 24:38
  again
• 24:38
  and
• 24:39
  again
• 24:39
  for
• 24:39
  learners
• 24:41
  of
• 24:41
  all
• 24:41
  sorts.
• 24:43
  It
• 24:43
  doesn't
• 24:43
  matter
• 24:43
  whether
• 24:44
  you're
• 24:44
  a
• 24:44
  struggling
• 24:45
  learner
• 24:45
  or
• 24:45
  whether
• 24:46
  you're
• 24:46
  a
• 24:46
  highly
• 24:46
  competent
• 24:47
  learner
• 24:47
  who's
• 24:47
  gained
• 24:48
  the
• 24:48
  system.
• 24:49
  But
• 24:49
  experience,
• 24:51
  oh,
• 24:51
  the
• 24:51
  tragedy
• 24:52
  of
• 24:53
  an
• 24:53
  incredibly
• 24:54
  rare
• 24:54
  failure
• 24:55
  at
• 24:55
  something
• 24:57
  which
• 24:57
  causes
• 24:58
  a
• 24:58
  massive
• 24:59
  spike
• 24:59
  in
• 24:59
  anxiety
• 25:00
  that
• 25:00
  you
• 25:00
  can't
• 25:00
  control.
• 25:03
  It's
• 25:03
  every
• 25:03
  learner
• 25:04
  who
• 25:04
  needs
• 25:04
  this.
• 25:05
  Everyone.
• 25:08
  And
• 25:09
  I'm
• 25:09
  just
• 25:09
  going
• 25:09
  to
• 25:09
  be,
• 25:09
  I'm
• 25:10
  going
• 25:10
  to
• 25:10
  gently,
• 25:11
  I'm
• 25:11
  going
• 25:11
  to
• 25:11
  gently
• 25:12
  challenge
• 25:12
  all
• 25:12
  of
• 25:13
  us.
• 25:13
  If
• 25:14
  you're
• 25:14
  listening
• 25:14
  to,
• 25:15
  think
• 25:15
  about
• 25:15
  that,
• 25:15
  right?
• 25:16
  Because
• 25:17
  no
• 25:17
  leadership
• 25:18
  mandate
• 25:20
  can
• 25:20
  prevent
• 25:20
  you
• 25:21
  from
• 25:21
  doing
• 25:21
  that.
• 25:23
  These
• 25:23
  are
• 25:23
  choices
• 25:24
  that
• 25:24
  leaders
• 25:25
  and
• 25:25
  teachers
• 25:25
  make
• 25:25
  every
• 25:26
  single
• 25:26
  day,
• 25:28
  right?
• 25:29
  Sometimes
• 25:29
  we're
• 25:30
  unaware
• 25:30
  of
• 25:30
  them,
• 25:30
  sometimes
• 25:31
  we're
• 25:31
  completely
• 25:31
  unaware.
• 25:32
  But
• 25:32
  that's
• 25:33
  what
• 25:33
  this
• 25:33
  podcast
• 25:33
  is
• 25:33
  about,
• 25:34
  right?
• 25:34
  It's
• 25:35
  about
• 25:35
  bringing
• 25:35
  awareness
• 25:36
  to
• 25:36
  these
• 25:37
  needs.
• 25:37
  We
• 25:37
  have
• 25:37
  to
• 25:37
  think
• 25:38
  about
• 25:38
  this.
• 25:39
  Because
• 25:40
  what
• 25:41
  becomes
• 25:41
  really
• 25:41
  important
• 25:42
  becomes
• 25:43
  really
• 25:43
  important
• 25:44
  is
• 25:45
  this
• 25:46
  innovation
• 25:47
  that
• 25:48
  changes
• 25:48
  the
• 25:49
  student
• 25:49
  experience,
• 25:50
  especially
• 25:53
  for
• 25:53
  students
• 25:54
  who
• 25:54
  struggle.
• 25:56
  We're
• 25:57
  responsible.
• 25:58
  We're
• 25:59
  capable
• 26:00
  of
• 26:00
  making
• 26:01
  those
• 26:01
  shifts
• 26:03
  of
• 26:03
  nurturing
• 26:05
  the
• 26:05
  human.
• 26:06
  I
• 26:07
  think
• 26:07
  about
• 26:07
  powerful
• 26:08
  student
• 26:08
  care
• 26:08
  and
• 26:09
  I
• 26:09
  think
• 26:09
  about,
• 26:09
  well,
• 26:10
  wait
• 26:10
  a
• 26:10
  minute.
• 26:11
  If
• 26:11
  we
• 26:11
  approach
• 26:11
  every
• 26:12
  student
• 26:13
  recognizing
• 26:14
  their
• 26:14
  innate
• 26:15
  human
• 26:15
  desire
• 26:15
  to
• 26:16
  do
• 26:16
  well,
• 26:17
  if
• 26:17
  we
• 26:17
  approach
• 26:18
  every
• 26:18
  student
• 26:19
  and
• 26:19
  we're
• 26:20
  trying
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  build
• 26:20
  for
• 26:21
  them
• 26:21
  self
• 26:21
  efficacy
• 26:22
  and
• 26:22
  agency
• 26:23
  and
• 26:24
  provide
• 26:25
  joy
• 26:25
  filled
• 26:26
  learning
• 26:26
  experiences
• 26:28
  all
• 26:28
  wrapped
• 26:28
  up
• 26:28
  in
• 26:29
  an
• 26:29
  environment
• 26:30
  where
• 26:30
  they
• 26:30
  belong,
• 26:31
  where
• 26:31
  they're
• 26:31
  valued
• 26:32
  and
• 26:32
  where
• 26:32
  they
• 26:32
  matter
• 26:34
  changes
• 26:35
  the
• 26:35
  trajectory.
• 26:36
  It
• 26:37
  does.
• 26:37
  It
• 26:37
  changes
• 26:37
  how
• 26:38
  I
• 26:38
  think
• 26:38
  about
• 26:38
  them.
• 26:39
  As
• 26:39
  a
• 26:39
  student
• 26:40
  learning
• 26:40
  to
• 26:40
  read,
• 26:41
  for
• 26:41
  example,
• 26:42
  and
• 26:43
  a
• 26:43
  student
• 26:43
  whose
• 26:43
  personality
• 26:44
  is
• 26:44
  prickly
• 26:45
  and
• 26:45
  difficult
• 26:46
  and
• 26:46
  exhausting.
• 26:48
  I
• 26:49
  mean,
• 26:49
  I
• 26:49
  feel
• 26:49
  like
• 26:50
  I
• 26:50
  just
• 26:50
  want
• 26:51
  to
• 26:51
  say
• 26:51
  to
• 26:52
  all
• 26:52
  of
• 26:52
  our
• 26:52
  colleagues,
• 26:53
  it's
• 26:54
  necessary
• 26:55
  and
• 26:56
  okay
• 26:57
  to
• 26:57
  say
• 26:57
  I
• 26:57
  cannot
• 26:58
  do
• 26:58
  all
• 26:58
  of
• 26:59
  it.
• 26:59
  I
• 26:59
  can't
• 27:00
  do
• 27:00
  it
• 27:00
  all
• 27:00
  every
• 27:01
  day.
• 27:01
  I
• 27:01
  feel
• 27:01
  like
• 27:02
  I
• 27:02
  fail
• 27:02
  every
• 27:03
  day
• 27:03
  at
• 27:03
  this.
• 27:04
  I
• 27:04
  think
• 27:04
  it's
• 27:05
  okay
• 27:05
  to
• 27:05
  start
• 27:05
  there.
• 27:06
  I
• 27:06
  think
• 27:06
  it's
• 27:06
  okay
• 27:07
  to
• 27:07
  recognize
• 27:07
  that
• 27:08
  someday
• 27:08
  day
• 27:08
  we
• 27:09
  wallow
• 27:09
  for
• 27:10
  weeks
• 27:10
  at
• 27:10
  a
• 27:10
  time,
• 27:11
  not
• 27:11
  just
• 27:12
  a
• 27:12
  day
• 27:12
  in
• 27:13
  that
• 27:13
  space,
• 27:13
  because
• 27:14
  there
• 27:14
  is
• 27:15
  so
• 27:16
  much
• 27:17
  claiming
• 27:18
  our
• 27:18
  attention
• 27:19
  and
• 27:19
  commitment.
• 27:21
  It's
• 27:21
  never
• 27:22
  just
• 27:22
  one
• 27:22
  Thing
• 27:22
  one
• 27:23
  philosophy.
• 27:23
  That
• 27:23
  philosophy
• 27:24
  is
• 27:24
  incredibly
• 27:25
  complex,
• 27:27
  Incredibly
• 27:27
  complex.
• 27:28
  And
• 27:28
  it
• 27:29
  takes
• 27:29
  a
• 27:29
  willingness
• 27:30
  to
• 27:30
  try
• 27:30
  and
• 27:31
  fail
• 27:31
  and
• 27:31
  to
• 27:31
  experience
• 27:32
  fail,
• 27:33
  failure
• 27:33
  epically
• 27:35
  in
• 27:35
  ways
• 27:35
  that
• 27:35
  dispirit
• 27:36
  us.
• 27:39
  And
• 27:39
  to
• 27:39
  keep
• 27:40
  going.
• 27:41
  To
• 27:41
  keep
• 27:41
  going
• 27:41
  somehow.
• 27:43
  Because
• 27:44
  the
• 27:44
  student.
• 27:44
  Because
• 27:45
  that
• 27:45
  student
• 27:45
  matters.
• 27:46
  Because
• 27:46
  that
• 27:46
  student
• 27:47
  matters.
• 27:48
  And
• 27:48
  there's
• 27:49
  our
• 27:49
  North
• 27:49
  Star.
• 27:50
  I've
• 27:51
  submitted
• 27:51
  myself
• 27:51
  to
• 27:52
  this
• 27:52
  exhausting
• 27:53
  trial
• 27:54
  of
• 27:54
  a
• 27:54
  profession
• 27:55
  because
• 27:57
  this
• 27:57
  life
• 27:58
  is
• 27:58
  in
• 27:58
  the
• 27:58
  balance
• 27:59
  and
• 27:59
  this
• 28:00
  child
• 28:00
  matters
• 28:02
  even
• 28:02
  when
• 28:03
  they
• 28:03
  have
• 28:04
  jumped
• 28:04
  up
• 28:04
  and
• 28:04
  down
• 28:04
  on
• 28:05
  my
• 28:05
  very
• 28:05
  last
• 28:06
  nerve
• 28:06
  for
• 28:06
  the
• 28:06
  umpteenth
• 28:07
  time.
• 28:09
  Yeah.
• 28:09
  And
• 28:09
  I.
• 28:10
  I
• 28:10
  think
• 28:10
  it.
• 28:11
  I
• 28:11
  believe.
• 28:12
  Nah,
• 28:13
  I
• 28:13
  think
• 28:13
  I
• 28:13
  believe
• 28:14
  it
• 28:14
  becomes
• 28:16
  less
• 28:16
  and
• 28:16
  less
• 28:17
  challenging
• 28:18
  when
• 28:20
  we
• 28:20
  minimize
• 28:21
  or
• 28:21
  remove
• 28:22
  the
• 28:22
  drift.
• 28:24
  Because
• 28:24
  it's
• 28:25
  not
• 28:25
  about
• 28:26
  just
• 28:26
  me
• 28:27
  figuring
• 28:27
  it
• 28:28
  out.
• 28:29
  It
• 28:29
  isn't
• 28:31
  it
• 28:31
  that
• 28:32
  those
• 28:33
  prickly
• 28:33
  behaviors,
• 28:34
  as
• 28:34
  you
• 28:34
  called
• 28:35
  it,
• 28:36
  are
• 28:36
  not
• 28:37
  for
• 28:38
  me
• 28:38
  alone
• 28:41
  to
• 28:41
  respond
• 28:41
  to
• 28:43
  support,
• 28:44
  to
• 28:46
  determine
• 28:47
  how
• 28:47
  we
• 28:48
  best
• 28:48
  support
• 28:51
  that
• 28:51
  student
• 28:52
  and
• 28:52
  each
• 28:54
  of
• 28:54
  our
• 28:54
  other
• 28:54
  students.
• 28:55
  It's
• 28:56
  not
• 28:56
  mine
• 28:56
  alone.
• 28:57
  And
• 28:57
  it
• 28:57
  becomes
• 28:59
  less
• 29:00
  daunting
• 29:01
  when
• 29:01
  I.
• 29:02
  When
• 29:03
  I
• 29:03
  know
• 29:03
  that.
• 29:04
  When
• 29:04
  I
• 29:04
  experience
• 29:05
  that
• 29:07
  in
• 29:07
  every
• 29:09
  corner
• 29:10
  of
• 29:10
  the
• 29:10
  organization.
• 29:12
  Yeah.
• 29:13
  When
• 29:13
  I
• 29:13
  feel
• 29:13
  part
• 29:14
  of
• 29:14
  a
• 29:14
  team
• 29:15
  of
• 29:15
  people
• 29:16
  who
• 29:16
  are
• 29:17
  ready
• 29:17
  to
• 29:17
  respond
• 29:18
  instead
• 29:18
  of
• 29:19
  reacting
• 29:21
  and
• 29:21
  support.
• 29:22
  Yeah.
• 29:23
  And
• 29:23
  when
• 29:24
  we
• 29:24
  feel
• 29:24
  as
• 29:25
  competent
• 29:26
  as
• 29:27
  instructional
• 29:27
  technicians
• 29:30
  as
• 29:30
  we
• 29:31
  do
• 29:32
  as
• 29:34
  compassionate
• 29:35
  educators
• 29:37
  who
• 29:37
  know
• 29:37
  how
• 29:38
  to
• 29:38
  create
• 29:38
  a
• 29:39
  sense
• 29:39
  of
• 29:39
  belonging,
• 29:41
  who
• 29:41
  know
• 29:41
  how
• 29:42
  to
• 29:42
  elevate
• 29:42
  and
• 29:43
  attend
• 29:43
  to
• 29:43
  student
• 29:44
  voice
• 29:44
  and
• 29:45
  student
• 29:45
  experience
• 29:47
  and
• 29:47
  know
• 29:47
  how
• 29:47
  to
• 29:48
  weave
• 29:48
  that
• 29:48
  in
• 29:49
  to
• 29:49
  our
• 29:49
  daily
• 29:50
  practices
• 29:50
  and
• 29:50
  routines.
• 29:52
  I
• 29:52
  think
• 29:53
  you're
• 29:53
  right.
• 29:53
  I
• 29:53
  think
• 29:53
  the
• 29:54
  anxiety
• 29:54
  over
• 29:55
  time
• 29:55
  lessens
• 29:56
  because
• 29:57
  a
• 29:58
  sense
• 29:58
  of
• 29:58
  competency
• 29:59
  grows.
• 29:59
  But
• 29:59
  it
• 30:00
  doesn't
• 30:00
  grow
• 30:00
  accidentally.
• 30:03
  No.
• 30:03
  This
• 30:03
  is
• 30:03
  hard
• 30:03
  work.
• 30:05
  Innovation
• 30:05
  rooted
• 30:06
  in
• 30:06
  humanity,
• 30:07
  built
• 30:07
  by
• 30:07
  coherent
• 30:08
  human
• 30:08
  systems.
• 30:09
  Right.
• 30:09
  It
• 30:09
  ain't
• 30:09
  for
• 30:10
  the
• 30:10
  faint
• 30:10
  of
• 30:10
  heart.
• 30:12
  This
• 30:12
  is
• 30:12
  hard
• 30:13
  work.
• 30:13
  And
• 30:13
  it
• 30:13
  really
• 30:14
  requires
• 30:15
  that
• 30:15
  we
• 30:15
  look
• 30:16
  at
• 30:16
  ourselves,
• 30:17
  not
• 30:17
  to
• 30:17
  beat
• 30:18
  ourselves
• 30:18
  up.
• 30:19
  That's
• 30:19
  not
• 30:19
  about
• 30:19
  that,
• 30:20
  but
• 30:20
  about
• 30:20
  saying,
• 30:21
  how
• 30:22
  do
• 30:22
  we
• 30:23
  think
• 30:23
  differently
• 30:25
  about
• 30:25
  what
• 30:26
  we
• 30:26
  do
• 30:27
  every
• 30:27
  single
• 30:28
  day?
• 30:29
  Right.
• 30:29
  Every
• 30:29
  single
• 30:30
  day.
• 30:30
  Coherence
• 30:32
  isn't
• 30:32
  built
• 30:33
  by
• 30:33
  intention.
• 30:35
  It's
• 30:35
  built
• 30:35
  by
• 30:35
  repetition.
• 30:37
  Right.
• 30:37
  It's
• 30:38
  built
• 30:38
  by
• 30:39
  those
• 30:40
  daily
• 30:40
  decisions
• 30:41
  that
• 30:41
  we
• 30:41
  make.
• 30:42
  Students
• 30:42
  experience
• 30:43
  our
• 30:43
  patterns,
• 30:44
  our
• 30:45
  decisions
• 30:45
  more
• 30:46
  than
• 30:46
  they
• 30:46
  experience
• 30:47
  our
• 30:47
  philosophy
• 30:48
  or
• 30:48
  our
• 30:48
  values.
• 30:50
  If
• 30:50
  we
• 30:50
  want
• 30:51
  future
• 30:51
  ready
• 30:51
  schools
• 30:52
  built
• 30:53
  through
• 30:53
  coherent
• 30:54
  human
• 30:54
  systems,
• 30:55
  then
• 30:56
  the
• 30:56
  real
• 30:56
  work
• 30:56
  isn't
• 30:57
  launching
• 30:58
  an
• 30:58
  initiative.
• 31:00
  It's
• 31:00
  not
• 31:00
  about
• 31:00
  the
• 31:01
  shiny
• 31:01
  object.
• 31:02
  Right.
• 31:02
  It's
• 31:03
  about.
• 31:03
  This
• 31:04
  is
• 31:04
  the
• 31:04
  hard
• 31:04
  part.
• 31:04
  Right.
• 31:04
  This
• 31:05
  is
• 31:05
  the
• 31:05
  heartbreak
• 31:05
  because
• 31:05
  everybody
• 31:06
  gets
• 31:06
  defensive
• 31:06
  now.
• 31:07
  It's
• 31:07
  about
• 31:07
  examining
• 31:08
  the
• 31:08
  daily
• 31:09
  adult
• 31:09
  choices
• 31:11
  we
• 31:11
  make,
• 31:13
  especially
• 31:13
  under
• 31:14
  pressure,
• 31:16
  because
• 31:16
  that's
• 31:16
  where
• 31:17
  innovation
• 31:17
  either
• 31:19
  deepens
• 31:19
  learning
• 31:22
  or
• 31:22
  quietly
• 31:23
  drifts.
• 31:26
  My
• 31:26
  friends,
• 31:26
  we'll
• 31:27
  see
• 31:27
  you

  week
• 31:28
  in
