"All the kids belong to all of us" with Dr. John Hodge

Let us know what you think! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1733488/fan_mail/new] Overseeing student accountability, achievement, and success are core parts of being a local school leader. Although this principle is simple enough at face value, it can be complicated to put into practice. On this episode, we are joined by an expert who is known for bringing practical solutions to the world of student support and achievement. Dr. John Hodge is the Chief Inspiration Officer of An Achievable Dream, [https://achievabledream.org/] a nonprofit organization that partners with public school districts in under-served communities around southeast Virginia. He’s also the co-founder of An Achievable Dream Urban Learning Leadership Center, providing education consulting to school districts across the country. NCSBA’s Ben Christoph sits down with John to talk about the best ways school district leaders can facilitate student success and support school accountability.  NCSBA is the professional organization that represents local boards of education in North Carolina. It is a member-driven association that supports the school governance team—school board members, superintendents, senior administrative staff and board assistants—in its complex leadership role. We help develop, communicate, and advocate for the perspective of North Carolina school districts.

County & School Board Committee Gets Results on Budget

Let us know what you think! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1733488/fan_mail/new] Respect, trust, and teamwork. These three words are taught and lived out every day in our public schools but often get lost in business between school boards and county boards. What can local leaders do to overcome differences, align their priorities, and – most importantly – get results for students in their district? In Dare County, they have answered this question through a series of meetings they call the 5-on-5 Committee. Dare County School Board Chair David Twiddy, Board Chair of the Dare County Commissioners Bob Woodard, and Dare County Commissioner Mary Ellon Ballance recently sat down with NCSBA’s Justice Warren to discuss the county and school district’s ongoing collaboration on annual budget talks and the positive outcomes for their students.

Stronger Networks + Community Collaboration = Opportunities for Students

Let us know what you think! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1733488/fan_mail/new] The best leaders know how to make the right connections and build strong networks in order to get the best results. This is especially true in the work of a school board member, where partnerships mean success for your district and better outcomes for students. To zoom in on one example of a North Carolina school district partnering with other local leaders and entities, we’re joined by Wade Auman, a deputy superintendent with Montgomery County Schools. Wade discusses how he and his district’s leadership have built partnerships with their local county commissioners and community college in order to expand their career and technical education offerings. Listen in to the conversation between Wade Auman and NCSBA’s Christine Scheef.  NCSBA is the professional organization that represents local boards of education in North Carolina.

Communications as a Cornerstone: Proactive Tips to Avoid Crisis

Let us know what you think! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1733488/fan_mail/new] Are you prepared to respond to a reporter’s phone call about a polarizing post made on your school district’s Facebook page? Does your school board have a plan for communicating with your community about upcoming district budget cuts? How will you talk with the students and families affected by the proposed closing of their school? Are there issues that concern you—even if they haven’t yet reached the public eye? To answer those questions and more, we’re joined by Thom Fladung, a managing partner for Hennes Communications. Thom has more than 33 years of daily newspaper and digital media experience and shares his expert insight on managing communications in today’s landscape. Listen in to the conversation between Thom and NCSBA Assistant Director of Communications Ben Christoph.

Hunger Doesn't Take a Summer Break: NC's Summer Nutrition Programs

Let us know what you think! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1733488/fan_mail/new] While many schools take a break for summer, hunger never takes a day off. That is why you’ll find approximately 3,000 meal sites operating in communities across North Carolina during summer breaks. These meal sites serve students over 80,000 meals on a daily basis to those in need and, in turn, give families full stomachs and peace of mind. In this episode, guests from the NC Department of Public Instruction’s Office of School Nutrition and Auxiliary Services join the show to spread the word about these programs in greater detail. These experts in nutrition, Senior Director Rachel Findley and Section Chief of Outreach and Promotion Lynne Privette, talk with NCSBA’s Ben Christoph about the needs, goals, and challenges of running these nutrition services. NCSBA is the professional organization that represents local boards of education in North Carolina. It is a member-driven association that supports the school governance team—school board members, superintendents, senior administrative staff and board assistants—in its complex leadership role.
