“Simplifying the Journey is a valuable resource for schools looking to truly do the right work but avoid the trap and pitfall of adding ‘one more thing.’ This book helps reduce the educational noise for educators and focus on what truly matters, student and educator learning. No matter what your role is in a school, Simplifying the Journey provides practical, meaningful, and doable strategies for educators.”
“I loved Simplifying the Journey! It flowed well and had a lot of really good information. It is an interesting and easy read that sounds possible to do. It motivated me to want to put this into motion at my school in hopes that it’ll help make life a little easier.”
“The processes in Simplifying the Journey are what takes teaching from an overwhelming, often stressful, experience to an experience grounded in research-supporting ideas that are straightforward and attainable. Gaining clarity on the standards and sharing that clarity with the team members create a space where everyone’s voice and talents truly shine. As a teacher whose only goal is for my students to learn at high levels, I can’t wait to implement each piece of this process and watch my students shine.”
“As a school principal, my main job is to help students learn. Simplifying the Journey helps our school do just that. It makes the process easy to understand, with practical tools and examples that teachers and leaders can use immediately.”
“Simplifying the Journey provides a clear, easy-to-follow, and effective path for school improvement and success. It isn’t one more thing, but rather, is the thing that will ensure high levels of learning for all students. The simple, clear organization provides an achievable road map that results in high-quality learning experiences for students and a strong, collaborative culture for educators.”
