Principals Perspectives - Podcasts on School Improvement

Principals in the Oregon GEAR UP schools are involved in many exciting initiatives that are changing their schools in exciting ways. In order to share some of these programs and to allow principals to speak directly with other principals, a set of podcasts is being developed by Jerry Lynch with support from Dana Beck at Oregon GEAR UP.

Four podcasts are currently available at http://gearup.ous.edu/podcasts.php or through the Principals Perspective link at the iTunes Store. Current topics include:

  • College and Career Advisory Program – Kristi McGree, Principal, South Umpqua High School
  • Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support – Bryan Wood, former principal , Brookings-Harbor High School and Diane Kinney, Dean of Students, Azalea Middle School
  • Increasing Student Expectations and Test Scores – Jay Mathiesen, Principal of La Pine High School
  • Freshman Academy – De Ann Jenness, Principal, North Marion High School

The podcasts are a rich resource for principals or their staff who can learn about the ways that GEAR UP teachers and principals are improving the educational experience of their students.
