Are your teachers overwhelmed with busywork and disconnected mandates? In this episode of Transformative Principal, Jethro Jones sits down with Emily Makelky, Vice President of the Curriculum Leadership Institute, to tackle the real problem facing schools: how to create a meaningful, locally-developed curriculum that actually improves teaching and learning.

Discover:

  • The difference between curriculum, standards, and resources (and why it matters)
  • Why local, district-wide curriculum is essential for student and teacher success
  • How to involve teachers in meaningful work that energizes them (not just more paperwork)
  • The role of principals in supporting—not micromanaging—curriculum development
  • How to keep curriculum relevant, flexible, and focused on what students really need

Whether you’re a principal, teacher, or education leader, you’ll walk away with practical ideas to make curriculum work for your school community.

We’re thrilled to be sponsored by IXL.
