Plano ISD's enrollment has dropped every school year since 2010-11. Their CTE programs have grown. They're opening a 150,000 square foot career center this month — designed so programs can be phased in and out as the trades change. Being the growing thing inside a shrinking district is a win. It's also a position worth having your radar up about.
The lesson: every semester I write each kid a letter. What they're doing well, what to push on, what I think they could be. I thought I was doing something nice for students. I was auditing myself — because you'll get through fifteen names fast and then hit one where you've got nothing. That blank spot is the most honest feedback you'll ever get about your own attention.
The rant: your emergency is not everybody's emergency.
Toolbox: four levels of grading. Find yourself.
