Office of School Transformation

When asked about transformation, Dawn Ho**er says, "It's hard work!" The joy on her face in this photo is the same joy you see when you visit her school, watch her with her students, and celebrate with her staff. The 2025-26 school year is over...here's to educators who love what they do and leave it all on the field!

The award-winning robotics team from Thomas E. Kerns Elementary works with Mission Robotics to develop with essential skills for the future workforce!

Growth. Opportunity. Achievement. Transformation.

These aren’t just words on a slide — they are the heartbeat of our work. During our Transformation Retreat, we focused on the GOAT target areas that continue to drive our schools forward: building growth for every learner, creating opportunities that expand access and belonging, achieving results that matter for students, and leading transformation that lasts.

Proud of this team’s commitment to doing the hard, hopeful work that changes outcomes for children every day.

Transformation happens when our community steps in to pour into our students!!! Experiences like this don’t just inspire in the moment; they shape confidence, character, and future leadership. The impact is real, and it lasts.

This is what intentional leadership looks like! Elevate isn’t just a model—it’s a leadership stretch goal that pressure-tests vision, sharpens practice, and drives real results. Transformation happens when leaders choose to ELEVATE!
