I build the systems that get schools to an A.
Former campus principal. Builder of the dashboards, coaching cycles, and leadership routines that turn a school improvement plan into what happens every week.
What would it take to reach an A?
Here is an invented elementary campus sitting at a C. Move its numbers and watch the rating respond. This is the kind of question I help campus teams answer with their own data, months before ratings come out.
Student achievement
Percent of STAAR tests at each performance level.
School progress
Percent of tests showing a year or more of growth.
Closing the gaps
Percent of student-group targets met.
A simplified illustration using an invented campus and approximate cut points. The overall score takes the better of achievement and progress at 70 percent, plus closing the gaps at 30 percent. The official TEA calculation includes more components, and cut points vary by campus type.

About Andrew
I've sat in the principal's chair, and I know good intentions aren't the problem.
Most schools already know what they want to improve. What they're missing is a system that makes the right work easy to do every single week: data leaders actually open, observations that end in a clear next step, and routines that survive a busy October.
That's what I build. Not a binder of recommendations, but the working dashboard, the observation cycle, the monthly leadership routine. I build them alongside your team so they keep running long after I've gone.

What I build
Each one is built for your campus, with your data, and handed to your team to run.
Data dashboards
Live views that pull the numbers your leaders already collect into one place they'll actually open.
A–F accountability systems
Domain-by-domain projections from your own checkpoint data, so you know where you stand before the ratings do.
Leadership efficiency
Calendars, meeting structures, and routines that give principals back hours for instruction.
Observation and feedback cycles
Walkthrough tools and coaching cycles that turn a ten-minute visit into a clear next step for the teacher.
Teacher Incentive Allotment
Application support and data monitoring built to hold up through the designation process.
Emergency operations plans
Plans written for your buildings and your people, ready for the audit and the drill.
How it works
- DiagnoseWe look at your data and your calendar together and name the one system that would change the most.
- BuildI build it with your team, using your data, in the tools you already have.
- Hand offYour people run it. I check in until it runs without me.
Let's build yours.
Whether you need a system built for your district or you're looking for someone to lead this work on your team, I'd like to hear about it.
