Superintendent Terry B. Grier and Chief Technology Information Officer Lenny J. Schad of the 215,000-student Houston Independent School District led a webinar called “Ed-Tech Leadership Evolves in Houston."
They have established a working relationship that balances an aggressive vision for digital innovation with a realistic sense of what schools can do with the resources they have.

Which leaders in your districts are solving intractable achievement problems?
Education Week Leader To Learn From Christopher Chatmon gathered all 106 principals from the Oakland Unified School District to transform dated thinking about the the African American boys in their district.
“Here we are in a majority-minority district, and our leaders didn’t see that our African-American male students could be a success,” Mr. Chatmon said. “We had to change the narrative that had normalized failure in black children.”

Improving outcomes for students is a family affair for Patricia Spradley and Tracy Hill.
Education Week Leaders To Learn From Tracy Hill (2014) and Patricia A. Spradely (2015) led a webinar on “Parents as Partners in Improving Student Achievement.” Both educators see parents as critical partners in improving student achievement—and have actively sought to engage them in the curriculum and school community. For Hill, that means taking parents along on college visits, or offering tips about the latest instructional strategies over donuts. For Spradley, that means offering a smorgasbord of classes to parents and community members through the district’s parent academy. They build strong family and community partnerships to help drive student achievement.

“We want students to feel connected to caring adults”
—Vickie Reed, 2015 Leader To Learn From
Reed joined our webinar “Amplifying Student Voice" and discussed her use of student-perception surveys as a factor in teacher evaluations for more than a decade in the 7,700-student Murray County, Ga., school district. Teachers take the same surveys, and the district’s schools work to narrow the gap between the views of employees and those of students.

How can leaders incorporate bilingual language learning in the classroom?
Value Language, Culture: By valuing the language and culture of English-learners, you can build on their assets. Students should be given the opportunity to graduate bilingual and bicultural.
Power of Data: When schools have access to disaggregated data by classroom, leaders and teachers are able to use the data to inform and adjust their instruction and identify any gaps in curricular resources for English-learners.
Family Support: Providing English-learner families with translated information, community resources, and culturally competent support services is essential to supporting students.
Education Week Leader to Learn From Richard A. Carranza, superintendent of the San Francisco Unified School District, . He prioritizes bilingual and bicultural education in his district,
