Transformative Principal

My (former) school district recently hired a new superintendent, and I was able to sit down and chat with him. I think he is just what the district needs and I am really excited for what he will bring to the table. We talked about the following:

• Where Dr. Briscoe got his start in education and in administration
• His diverse experience as a leader of schools that were from incredibly high-achieving to greatly struggling.
• Engaging in the community by being involved in community issues (building new police station, hospital, etc.)
• The political struggles that lead Dr. Briscoe to retirement from his school district.
• Why he felt like Canyons School District was a good match for him.
• Why it is so important to be out and about and seen.
• How to build trust. Time.
• What happened in the past, is in the past. Let’s not worry about it.
• The culture he wants to create: Trust & Collaboration.
• Honoring the past.
• How he measures the success of his superintendency, not to be confused with his job description.
• Why that measure of success is so important.
