This network is designed for principals who want to move beyond managing the day-to-day and focus on the core work of improving outcomes for their least-served students.
Rather than adding another initiative, this network supports principals to create coherence, strengthen leadership teams, and build sustainable systems that drive results.
CONNECT Midwest brings together schools across the Midwest, including Chicago, that are committed to improving ninth-grade success by strengthening both student outcomes and student experiences through collaboration, shared learning, and continuous improvement.
This network builds on prior work by focusing more deeply on how teams create sustainable feedback loops using data and student voice to take action, monitor impact, and refine practice over time.
