Ep #6 - Walking with Wildcats: The Admin Team at Thomas Metcalf School
from Live in the Lab Schools · host Andy Goveia & Ben Webb
What happens when a small K–8 school serves kids, teachers, and a university all at once? We invited Metcalf’s principal, assistant principal, and dean to pull back the curtain on lab school life: the fast pivots, the extra hats, and the reason everyone still calls it home. We talk about the power of a zone-defense leadership model where roles overlap on purpose and coverage never breaks. That structure fuels an open-door culture: tough conversations stay collaborative, visibility stays high, and support reaches the right person fast. Enjoy the episode?
