School Leaders routinely face uncomfortable, high-stakes conversations. Success depends on knowing how to navigate these moments with empathy, clarity, and professionalism rather than avoiding them.
Major Clarity is a college and career readiness program that bridges the gap between academic planning and real-world career outcomes. In this session, schools will design an implementation plan for the 2026-2027 school year

This session addresses a persistent leadership challenge: PLCs that feel productive on paper but fail to consistently translate into meaningful changes in classroom instruction. Grounded in the 4 essential PLC questions, participants will explore how to move teams beyond surface level planning and into disciplined, data driven conversations that demand evidence of student learning and clear instructional next steps.
How do we know if our assessments are actually measuring what matters most? Too often, Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) get stuck in a cycle of creating assessments that test compliance or memorization rather than true mastery. To move the needle on student achievement, leadership must guide teams to look beneath the surface of their curriculum. This interactive, leadership-focused session equips leaders with the tools and frameworks needed to guide PLCs through the critical process of deconstructing essential standards. Participants will learn how to help teaching teams isolate core targets, define clear criteria for "proficiency," and audit or design common formative assessments (CFAs) that yield highly accurate student data.

Are you exhausted at the end of each school day from constantly managing chaos, responding to behavior concerns, and putting out fires? This session explores how intentional systems and consistent practices can transform school climate and culture by creating structure, clarity, and predictability for students and staff. Participants will examine practical strategies that strengthen communication, improve consistency, support positive behavior, and build a more productive learning environment. Walk away with actionable ideas to create sustainable change, reduce daily stressors, and develop systems that lead to stronger outcomes for your entire school community.
Why do your Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) still yield inconsistent results? This high-level briefing provides organizational leaders with the strategic vision to shift the culture from isolated work to consistent, high-impact collaboration. We will define the three non-negotiable pillars of instructional excellence—soundness, intentionality, and agility—and outline the systems necessary to ensure all secondary teams are doing the "right work" at the right time. Leave with a clear charge and a framework for evaluating and aligning your current systems to meet key instructional goals.
