In this episode, the focus shifts from teachers to a principal's perspective on implementing trust-based observations (TBO). Host Craig interviews Carrie Davis, principal of Robertson Elementary in Yakima, Washington. Carrie discusses her journey from initial skepticism to a strong advocate of TBO, detailing how it transformed her relationships with teachers and fostered a more trusting and collaborative atmosphere. The conversation covers the challenges of traditional formal observations, the introduction of TBO for non-evaluative teacher growth, and the significant positive feedback from teachers. Carrie reveals how TBO has encouraged reflective practices and boosted teacher confidence, ultimately improving teaching and learning in her school.
