In this "In The Chair" segment of EdLeadership on Tap, Gilbert, Dave and Michael sit down with veteran educator Mary Smith to pull back the curtain on the Assistant/Associate Principal role. Often seen as the bridge between vision and execution, the AP position requires a unique blend of agility, empathy, and strategic thinking.
Mary dives into the essential skills and competencies needed to thrive in the role today, from mastering difficult conversations to managing the daily pulse of a school building. But beyond the logistics, Mary’s core message is clear: student success is a direct result of teacher support.
Tune in as we discuss how APs can move beyond being "the disciplinarian" to becoming the ultimate advocate for their staff, ensuring every teacher has the tools and confidence to help their students win.

For the On Tap segment of the show, the co-hosts and Mary discuss a trend from their younger days that they would bring back.
