“Today was great and I can hardly wait to begin the new school year with the ideas and strategies we have learned and the commitment we’re made to clear expectations, consistency, appropriate relationships with students, homework linked to the next day’s lesson, vocabulary taught in context and making connections with parents…I’m learning the right stuff that is non-negotiable to increase student achievement. I love the idea of extended learning opportunities as a positive. This was a great review and reminder of new things to consider. Vocabulary ideas were extremely helpful. I will cue students as to expectations rather than just tell them. This was a very charismatic, informative, and relevant presentation and I liked the personal examples and stories; it made it more interesting.”
– “Teaching What We Expect and Getting It”
Riverview School District
“When Judee said “help me to understand what you were thinking”…I have said that with many students when delving into incidents. I was validated! How important it is to have a clear design of how to handle issues in a respectful way. This is sure to boost everyone’s morale and to make our school even a greater place to be! I am excited to be working in this environment with this group of people!”
– “Becoming a Professional Learning Community”
Cedar Valley Elementary School, Kent School District
“Outstanding in every way; lots of practical ideas I can immediately use! Excellent, concrete ideas to help decision making processes be more successfully implemented in schools. I liked the “Saturn” model. These are excellent tools that need to be used and shared. Great practical ideas! Very useful and timely. Sold!!! Always dynamic and motivating. A sense of humor is always appreciated with difficult issues. I will use the strategies to make an impact.”
– “Data Driven Decision Making in a Time of Change!”
WASA Project Leadership
“Judee offered great information on how to deal with groups of parents and the community. I loved the ideas on how to work with individuals who are or have the potential to become problems. Interactions with the audience helped to answer questions and concerns. Judee's stories are great! Thank you for reminding us to be focused and intentional and that "if you expect more, you will get more!"
–"What are the Messages We Are Sending About Our School?"
Washington State Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development Conference
“Using our data gives us new insights and areas of focus to increase student achievement. Examining several data points, as well as student work, gives us a clear picture of what is working and what is not. There were some surprises, such as measurement because the unit is at the end of the book, after we give the WASL; our data will cause us to make some instructional changes. It was also gratifying to see areas of growth which is always reinforcing to serve as a rich source of information and dialogue in our grade level meetings. I now have a better picture of what increasing student achievement should look like based on our data!”
– “Using Our Research and Data to Improve Instruction”
Pine Tree Elementary, Kent School District
“The handouts are so practical that I could listen, take notes and process information all at the same time. Judee is so organized and experienced that she can teach anything and answer any question; she is straight forward and provides useful material with concrete examples and stories. She has a good pace of information and resources appropriate to the topic delivered in a timely manner. Judee is a wonderful source of educational wisdom; thank you for all your generous contributions to all of Washington's children. You provide the right stuff at the right time.”
– "Issues into Action: Transforming and Shaping School Culture"
Ferrucci Junior High, Puyallup School District
“As a School Board Director, this session helped me with the concepts I need to understand to guide the district in the curriculum alignment process. It is a process that must actively involve teachers to identify the concepts (standards) by grade level that all students must know, do, and understand. Pre-assessment is an important component as well as teaching vocabulary in context, using focused and relevant homework to extend learning and to have students show what they know on a daily basis with an emphasis on "bell to bell" teaching will make a difference in increasing student achievement.”
– "Mapping the Future: Curriculum Aligned to the Standards"
Small Schools Conference
“I feel a sense of enthusiasm from my colleagues about strategies we can use; I like the ideas and tools. This presentation was a gift! It helped me center myself and quiet the “internal” noise that interferes with my ability to focus on the students and their needs rather than on the tasks that often seem daunting at the beginning of the year. I now feel far more ready to make their day in the best of all positive ways.”
– “So Many Students, So Little Time: Every Child a Reader"
Brown’s Point Elementary School, Tacoma School District
