PrincipalED with Kate Barker and Kourtney Ferrua Transformative Principal 406 That data represents the faces of the kids that we care about. Via @Kate_s_barker and @kourtneyferrua The book PrincipalED: Navigating the Leadership Learning Curve by Rachael George, Kate Barker, and Kourtney Ferrua helps principals understand the core concepts to help them lead their schools. Kate Barker is a principal at Cherry Park Elementary in Portland, Oregon.  This is her 30 year in education and 17th year as a principal.  She works with a very diverse population which includes over 28 different languages in her community.   Kourtney Ferrua currently serves as the Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment in the McMinnville School District. Prior to working at the district office, she served as the principal at Wascher Elementary School for six years. In 2019 Kourtney was awarded Oregon Elementary Principal of the Year and as a National Distinguished Principal. You can have high expectations and infuse them with a vibrant culture. Working hard feels great! Common belief that everyone should be growing. Starting where people are coming in at. False dichotomy or pendulum. We can do that with deep love. That data represents the faces of the kids that we care about. Data Team system. CFA’s throughout district. Peer observation How to have hard conversations? Start with a relationship! Part of being a leader is communicating clearly and articulately stating your expectations. Inspect what you expect. In house professional development. Strength-based leadership Lesson study made a huge shift in the community - micro-planning as a team. Without a clearly articulated why or worthy purpose, any mandate will fail. Kourtney: The gift a principal can give themselves this week is to pause and reflect. Kate: How can you show that you love your community? Acts of appreciation. It’s time to go home.
