This episode features Dr. Ryan Carpenter, Superintendent of the Estacada School District in Oregon. Our conversation focuses on Dr. Carpenter’s use of an improvement science process as an evidence-based leadership framework to develop and initiative the district’s long term plan. We discuss the superintendents’ role in involving a wide range of community stakeholders in the planning process and how data can hold everyone accountable for carrying out the district’s vision, mission, and values. Information about the work Dr. Carpenter has been doing along with articles he has published can be accessed through the Estacada website https://www.estacadaschools.org and via YouTube Estacada School District.
