Increasing Stakeholder Satisfaction
A1. Impact of Stakeholder Loyalty: Stakeholder loyalty has a huge impact on Monticello Elementary Schools (MES) performance, but it “starts with developing a common vision, motto, goals, and beliefs because those things impact the decisions made at the local level, and they impact staff’s willingness to share and take ownership within their positions and rolls (Julie Holt September 26, 2017).” Students are also impacted, and take ownership in regards to respect for the school, respect for rules, and learning when common vision, motto and belief systems are in place, which effect the school, classroom, and small

Recommendations for Improvement: The process can be improved by continuing to listen to all constituents- minute to minute there will be needs and concerns that arise, and the principal may have to act by making quick decisions, which will be in the best interest for everyone, including the students, and stakeholders. The principal will not be able to act on every recommendation, but knowing when to act reasonably, and at crucial times will be important in providing improvement, and communicating to parents why the school does what they do. “By providing parent’s details, and training parents to come in and talk goes a long way to producing loyalty between the school and all of the stakeholders (Holt, September 26, 2017).” Principal Holt believes in an open door policy, a safe platform where conversation can happen, so that when people come into her office, they know they will be heard, conversation will take place, and problem solving will happen. I think as a principal you must have an open door and be willing to listen to parents and be an effective …show more content…
Recommendations for Improvement: One way I could see the school improving is by holding focus team meetings. Anytime any organization in the schools need to refocus, or talk about things, pull the team together to save time in the long haul. Having little focus meetings can build trust with those who collaborate, including administration, and the program, plus the whole team becomes empowered to do a better job at what they do. Consequently, the more support administration can give in a program teachers and staff are expected to teach, the better they will do if they know they are supported, and know exactly what to

    Kinder has had a tremendous impact on how the Greenville School District operates, before he was hired as a district administrator the schools culture was organized in a traditional top-down autocratic leadership style. The previous administrator made all the decisions with little to no input from the professional staff, parents or community stakeholders. The culture was one of employee disconnect with low rates of job satisfaction, high rates of professional absence and large numbers of employment turn-over each year. Under Mr. Kinder’s tenure the district has initiated professional learning community policies and he has worked hard to establish the collaborative culture now in found within the district. Teachers are not simply told what will be done, but rather they are the ones making the plans and implementing changes from within.…

    Also, this particular intermediate school has a literacy team which includes a reading coach, reading specialist, and a counselor who targets struggling children early so that reading problems do not continue to the next grade. I believe this is an excellent way to close achievement gaps between students. UNF and specifically COEHS, has strategies that enhance school climate and support student engagement in learning. For example, research conducted between student and faculty impacts student feelings of connectedness to the school. UNF Crisis Management Team has training sessions and videos (FEMA Active Shooter Training/Shots Fired on Campus Video) which shows UNF’s attention to fostering…

    From there, I would create a Principal Advisory Council made up of a variety of stakeholders to discuss issues, concerns, and plans to promote student achievement in the academic, social, and emotional domains. Changing the culture and climate of a school takes time and is a challenging task. However, it is my belief that teachers, students, and parents all have a common goal and that is for our students to succeed. Working collaboratively, understanding the struggles of the community, and developing trust and motivation to help one another, is an essential key to providing these students with the best chance to close the achievement…

According to Ferlazzo, “We need to relate to families, not as clients, but as partners in school and community improvement,” (2011, p. 10). Similarly, we need to engage all stakeholders in the community to support our schools, and educate teachers, that it is a misconception that providing parents with power does not decrease our control; rather, it increases the size of the pie to afford additional opportunities (Ferlazzo, 20011, p. 14).…

    Over the course of my seven years teaching high school social studies, I have had the opportunity to learn about the evolving roles and responsibilities of a school administrator from three amazing principals. Henry Kluttz, Kelly Withers, and Angelo DelliSanti have been excellent models for anyone aspiring to be an administrator. Having recently started my own journey towards this leadership role, my knowledge of what makes a great principal has grown exponentially. Having the opportunity to interview a pair of veteran elementary school principals through this assignment has been an eye-opening experience. Having spent the entirety of my teaching career at the high school level has left me with a limited understanding of how an elementary school functions.…
