Year 1: Survive (& Thrive!)

A calendar-aligned framework to coach new school leaders

could include diverse areas of exploration:

Summer Prep &
Back to School

Core values: How do your values align with your school’s mission? How will you “show up”?


Balance: What anchors you - beyond your role as a school leader? How will you integrate personal and professional life and model balance?

​

Overwhelm: Is there (really!) enough time? What happens when you feel like what you do is never enough?

The School Year

Relationships: How do you manage up, sideways, and down in service of your students, teachers, and community? 
 

Priorities: How does your calendar reflect what you value? What "comes first” - and why?

Morale: How do you maintain connection as spirit ebbs and flows? How do you model positivity (without being tone deaf) when energy wanes?

Finishing Strong &
Beginning Again

Closing strong: What are you proud of? What growth in students, colleagues, and yourself do you see most powerfully? How will you show gratitude for and celebrate? 


Next: How do you take the learning, insight, and hard-earned wisdom of the school year and use it to inform your priorities for the new school year? What does success look like in Year 2?
