Dr. Robert Avossa, Superintendent Fulton County Schools Strategic Staffing Dr. Robert Avossa, Superintendent Fulton County Schools

Strategic Staffing - Context Students= 135,000 Schools = 170 Flat student achievement Significant achievement gap between African-American and Caucasian students Dramatic achievement difference between schools 2 2

Developing the Initiative PART 1 Push vs. Pull Cash incentives to lure teachers to four high schools 3

Developing the Initiative PART 2 (PART 1 did not work…) Hundreds of teachers were surveyed & we found that teachers wanted: To go as a team. A great leader at the school. Assurance of a strong administrative team. … and cash incentives. 4

Creating the Framework 7 schools identified 7 principals identified Top teachers identified Communication to the school community Build consensus 5

Ready, Set, Reform Resources Communication Pressure/Support 6

What is the Strategic Staffing Initiative? Strategic staffing is also referred to as reconstitution policies and comprehensive school reform. The main focus with this initiative is replacing the principal and allowing the new principal to build his/her team and implement strategies of his/her choice to improve student achievement. Roles of principals vary depending on the philosophy of the district and/or the named principal. CMS views the role of a principal as an instructional leader. 7 7
