District math objectives can’t live on a slide deck. For change to happen, they need Bridges—the leaders who translate vision into action at the school and classroom level.

In this episode, we explore who the Bridges are (principals, assistant principals, instructional coaches, coordinators, and teacher-leaders) and why their role is essential to making district math objectives real. We dig into their responsibilities—guiding schools to set realistic math improvement goals, facilitating PLCs, modeling effective math practices, and supporting the use of monitoring tools as growth instruments rather than evaluation checklists.

We also unpack what Bridges need to succeed, framed as a double helix of intertwined skills:

Internalizing the math objectives

Leadership and coaching capacity

Key Takeaways:

Why Bridges—school-level leaders—are essential to bringing math objectives to life

How Bridges connect district goals with classroom practice through PLCs, walkthroughs, and coaching cycles
