Manage episode 506669487 series 3584564
Floyd D. Johnson Technology Center in York, South Carolina, is proof that small communities can make big changes for students. By embracing honest data, personalized improvement goals and strong community partnerships, the school has transformed student outcomes — and earned recognition as an SREB Pacesetter School.
In this episode, Daniel Rock and Marsha Moseley talk with Director Lee Green and teacher Angie Covington about how Floyd D. Johnson:
- Partnered with Duke Power to create South Carolina’s only line worker program.
- Built a powerful data wall that turned numbers into faces and helped more students complete pathways.
- Increased industry certifications by 51% and tripled student participation in CTSOs.
- Shifted teacher practice using the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle and individualized student learning objectives.
- Strengthened school culture so every student feels known, cared for and prepared for life after graduation.
Whether you’re a teacher, administrator or policymaker, you’ll find practical ideas for using data to drive action — and inspiration for how perseverance and teamwork can reshape a school.
