The year you wanted vs the year you got

You have a School Improvement Plan. You might not have a vision. And that difference explains everything about why your year keeps ending up in the same place. Most principals think the gap between the year they planned and the year they got is a follow-through problem. A staff problem. A prioritization problem. It isn't. It's a clarity gap — and your SIP, no matter how well-written, can't close it. In this episode I walk you through exactly what separates a school improvement plan from a 100% vision, why that distinction matters more than any strategy you'll set this fall, and the three questions that will tell you immediately whether your vision is clear enough to actually run your building. If your staff works hard but the initiatives still stall, if you're the only one who can see what's possible, if October keeps breaking your momentum — this episode is for you. 📩 Get the full newsletter every Friday: 100percentprincipal.com Resources mentioned:  Learn more about the upcoming free one-hour session on May 28th at 7pm ET called the 100% Vision Session: https://buildershipuniversity.com/visionlab/ Subscribe to The 100% Principal Newsletter — one thing every Friday you can take straight into Monday: 100percentprincipal.com This episode comes from The 100 Percent Principal Weekly—my newsletter where every Friday I share one thing you can take straight into Monday to move the needle toward 100%.
