Courtney Clark emphasizes visibility, PLCs and MTSS in Sodus Intermediate 90‑day plan
Summary
Courtney Clark, candidate and current assistant principal for a regional summer program, told attendees she would begin with a listening period, prioritize relationships and set up PLCs and MTSS processes while maintaining visible presence in classrooms and community events.
Courtney Clark, a finalist and current assistant principal for a cooperative summer school program, outlined a 30/60/90 plan that begins with listening and visibility and moves to data analysis, PLC‑driven action and MTSS refinement. She emphasized relationships as foundational and said she would be in classrooms, in hallways and at community events to build trust.
Clark described concrete steps including disaggregating achievement data, creating meaningful PLCs with action steps, running regular staff and family surveys to ‘take the temperature’ of culture, and using coaching systems to support teachers. She framed small operational wins — a child getting off the bus every day, improved cafeteria behavior — as indicators of progress and said she would share honest updates with families about early results.
During question periods Clark said accountability would start with listening to teachers’ perspectives, aligning on shared promises in PLCs, and checking for collective follow‑through rather than imposing top‑down changes. The district again invited feedback forms from attendees that will be provided to the incoming superintendent before final interviews take place.
