Jeff is currently an educator, author and speaker in Northern California. Having taught for ten years as an elementary school teacher in grades 4, 5, and 6, and am now serving in his 10th year as an administrator as an Elementary School VP, in Elk Grove. Jeff has always looked at education from a different lens: from someone who hated school and struggled with the typical educational model. Early on, Jeff vowed to always do his best to help increase opportunities for all students to feel heard, noticed, celebrated, challenged and be safe. Serving the whole child is one of his most valued passions, as we often miss out on an important piece of a child's puzzle. Jeff enjoys blogging, and writing. His first book, One Drop of Kindness hit the bookstores in summer, 2019 and his second book, It's Me, released on 11/15/2020. Jeff's third book, Monsters have Manners will be out in late ‘22. Jeff has hit the top, at times: US Olympic Swim Team Alternate, Pan American Games Gold Medalist, Coach of 4 time Olympian, Jason Lezak. Amazing wife, and 2 lovely kids. He's also seen the bottom, almost losing it all, which has brought him to God's path of sobriety since 1/28/2020. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bigedidea/message

What do we do when we are at our breaking point and feel completely overwhelmed? For many, unfortunately, masking and ignoring the problems become the unhealthy solution. This week's guest, Jeff Kubiak, is incredibly transparent and brave as he shares his battle with alcoholism, his focus on mental health, and how he is transforming his campus to focus on the social and emotional needs of his students and staff.  In this episode, we discuss: Focusing on the Trauma of Staff and Students Equity Walks on Campus And his upcoming book, Monsters Do Have Manners! About Jeff Kubiak: I, Jeff Kubiak,  grew up in Davis, CA with one sister, and an amazing mother and father. My mom was a public school teacher for 33 years, and my dad worked for UC Davis for 35 years. I have a phenomenal wife, Piper and two kids, Keeley, and Braden. My pops passed away in 2019 from Alzheimers. I am currently an educator, author and speaker in Northern California. Having taught for ten years as an elementary school teacher in grades 4, 5, and 6, and am now serving my 10th year as an administrator as an Elementary School VP, in Elk Grove.  I've always looked at education from a different lens: from someone who hated school and struggled with the typical educational model. I vow to always do my best to help increase opportunities for all students to feel heard, noticed, celebrated, challenged and be safe. Serving the whole child is one of my most valued passions, as we often miss out on an important piece of a child's puzzle. I work hard to push back against the old model of “Industrialized Education” and fight compliance. Not a day goes by that he is not looking ahead to improve educational equity, inclusion, empathy, student engagement and digital access for all. I enjoy blogging, and writing. My first book, One Drop of Kindness hit the bookstores in summer, 2019 and my second book, It's Me, released on 11/15/2020. My third book, Monsters have Manners will be out in mid ‘22. I've hit the top, at times: US Olympic Swim Team Alternate, Pan American Games Gold Medalist, Coach of 4 time Olympian, Jason Lezak.  I've seen the bottom, almost losing it all, which has brought me to the Glory of God's path to sobriety for 20 months and counting now. In my 22 years as an educator, I view myself as a servant leader whose title is unimportant, but my positive impact on others counts most. Servitude is my passion, and education is my vehicle. I enjoy working with companies and people that are not afraid to push boundaries, be honest, are open to difficult conversations, and embrace ALL students.

Jeff Kubiak had a challenging childhood in the school system because of undiagnosed ADHD. But when his sixth grade teacher took great care in helping him, it changed his trajectory, so much so he became a teacher himself, and finally a principal. His platform is to cultivate kindness in a sometimes volatile school environment. He even published a book called “One Drop of Kindness.” #onedropofkindness #restorativejustice #bullying #W4WNLife Without Limits is broadcast live at 9pm ET Mondays on W4WN Radio – The Women 4 Women Network (www.w4wn.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).

Jeff taught for ten years as an elementary school teacher in grades 4, 5, and 6 and has eight years of administrative experience. Jeff strives to connect with students by bringing real-world experiences to them, getting to know their names, engaging in lessons and play, and becoming a part of the learning process with them. He's always looked at education from a different lens: from someone who hated and struggled with school. Jeff vows to always do his best to help increase opportunities for all students to feel heard, noticed, celebrated, challenged, and safe. Jeff works hard to push back against the old model of "Industrialized Education" and fight compliance. There is not a day that goes by that he is not looking ahead to improve teacher pedagogy, student engagement, and digital access for all. Being a former world-class swimmer and coach, Jeff looks at education from perspectives that others don't. Knowing what it takes to fail, struggle, win, and go through the daily challenges that we all face (look at the '88 Olympic Trials in swimming/Jeff Kubiak/200 Breaststroke)."Kindness is an imperative component that is missing from our society. If we can use this book, and understand the importance that kindness makes every day, I believe we can all make a difference. For the most part, children want to be kind, but I've seen a Gus in every school I have worked at. That Gus may be a boy, girl, staff member, or even a parent. In schools especially, it is critical for us to embed kindness into everything we do, which will, in turn, improve our school and community climates.I am hoping that this book will positively impact each person that reads it and hope they will spread the word. Take part of a Random Drop of Kindness, or create your own ripple effect. One person at a time will change our world."

In this special Sub Plans episode, Mike and Will take a step back from leading the discussion and interview individuals working in different roles during distance learning to see what emotional tolls this situation is taking on each of us. The guys are joined by Janelle McLaughlin and Jeff Kubiak to talk out how we can all respond to students struggling with the emotional barriers of DL and how we can overcome those barriers ourselves.

  Jeff Kubiak is a principal in Davis, California. Didn’t really like school growing up. Pushed to be an administrator by his now-superintendent. One of the most diverse counties in the United States. MAP assessment closely related to state test. Much more small group instruction and intervention. MAP skills tied in with Khan Academy.
