(Re)Organizing for Excellence in the District Office: An Encore Presentation

Back by popular demand, AASA and EAB are hosting a webinar for superintendents and district leaders to explore how districts are optimizing central office structures to enhance sustainability, efficiency, and outcomes in today’s complex schools.

Central office staffing has grown by 77% nationwide, largely in response to the drastic increase in what public schools are asked to accomplish. However, because that growth has been slow and piecemeal, district administrators are still stretched thin and struggling with the scope of their mandate. As a result, superintendents in every state are asking how to upgrade their central office structure and practice to support greater sustainability, efficiency, and results.

In this encore presentation of our October webinar, EAB research experts will revisit the latest research on how districts are updating their leadership structures to achieve new levels of organizational excellence. We'll share key insights from our analysis of organizational charts and interviews with district leaders, outlining five essential strategies for creating a streamlined, aligned central office that can better support the evolving needs of today’s schools. Join us for a deep dive into how you can drive organizational excellence in your district.
