Shared Leadership Portage North Middle School Staff Meeting December 8, 2008

What is “Shared Leadership”?  The shared leadership model ensures that

parents, teachers, students and principals are empowered to provide leadership in some capacity;  Collaboration/investment of all stakeholders for shared goals/purpose (student learning);  Establishing a culture where the collective wisdom of the team strengthens student learning.

Professional Learning Communities  A professional learning community is one

where EVERYONE works together for the benefit of all students;  The focus is on learning for ALL students;  It is a culture of collaboration and is data driven.    

What do we want students to learn? How do we know if they have learned it? What do we do if they don’t? What do we do if they need to be challenged more?

Examples of Shared Leadership at NMS…  Grade Level Team Meetings  Team Teaching - Stephanie/Andy  School Improvement Team  MiBLSi Team  Math Lab  Lunch Supervision  Department Chairs

Potential Positive Outcomes  Commitment rather than compliance  Everyone has a vested interest in

achieving school wide goals  Drawing from the strengths of multiple peoples’ skills and talents  It builds a trusting environment which allows for honest and difficult discussions

Top-Down Model Potential Negative Outcomes  Compliance rather than commitment  Sometimes the people at the top are

unaware of the problems or the intricacies of the problem.  When a leader leaves, changes that had been implemented are often lost.

Advantages/Disadvantages of old TopDown Model Advantage - A clear leader, always the same person/persons enforcing rules/holding teachers accountable.  Disadvantage - less buy in, less ownership of outcomes, less representation ------- Advantage - We knew what was expected—whether one like it or not  Disadvantage - Too many people not moving or moving in the wrong direction ------ Too little teacher empowerment. Too little collaboration. However, it is a predictable and comfortable model. ------ Advantages: roles were clear people had expertise in their roles teachers could focus on & put all energy into teaching 



  

Disadvantage: Too much for one person Animosity stemming from being told what to do sometimes lack of buy-in

In what ways can staff

members support the shared leadership model at NMS, which will be essential to the success of further implementation of the
