Jeff Kubiak is a principal in Davis, California.

  • Didn’t really like school growing up.
  • Pushed to be an administrator by his now-superintendent.
  • One of the most diverse counties in the United States.
  • MAP assessment closely related to state test.
  • Much more small group instruction and intervention. MAP skills tied in with Khan Academy.
  • Reclaiming our child by Brad Gustafson.
  • Technology makes it possible
  • It might be a little bit loud, but I can still have my kids in the back, and we can be rocking!
  • Have a hard time having videos to show my teachers.
  • Encourage teachers to go check out other teachers’ classrooms.
  • Students set goals with teachers.
  • Start with why.
  • Then add the what.
  • How to help teachers change
  • Lots of PD - how to have a MAP goal setting conference with students.
  • Approach each teacher with how it will work for them.
  • We ask 800 kids to change every day! Why can’t we as adults make one little adjustment?
  • We don’t gossip.
  • How to be a transformative principal? Get into all the classrooms. Gotta get out of the office!
