In this episode, we spoke with John Ramos who was serving at the time of the recording as superintendent in the School District of South Orange & Maplewood in NJ. Our conversation touched on aspects of learning and leading in SOMSD including creating a vision for the future – a world we’ve yet to imagine – and engaging the South Orange & Maplewood community in designing that future.
Our conversation with John prompted these questions:
- How will you engage your stakeholders (including learners) in the development of your school or district’s vision?
- How can you ensure equity across your organization as you develop your strategic or comprehensive plan?
