Trustees press presenter on staff buy‑in and how the district would measure culture change
Summary
Board members said staff engagement and measurement of qualitative outcomes are likely challenges for the Nine Pathways pilot and asked how the district would track morale and cultural shifts beyond attendance metrics.
Trustees expressed concern that staff buy-in might be harder to achieve than student or parent engagement and asked for clearer measurement approaches for qualitative outcomes such as morale and culture change. Edison acknowledged measurement challenges and emphasized the program’s design for sustained reinforcement rather than a one-off initiative.
Board members specifically debated how to quantify outcomes beyond attendance (which the Golden Ticket targets) and asked for clarity on which metrics the Harvard research pilot would collect. The board asked the superintendent to return with a cost and implementation plan that includes evaluation measures before any adoption vote.
