What your master schedule says about you

Robyn Jackson
About this episode

Most principals treat the master schedule like a logistical puzzle—but what if the real problem isn’t the puzzle pieces, but the picture you're trying to build? In this episode, I unpack why master scheduling feels so frustrating, what fear is really driving all those revisions and pushbacks, and what it would look like to create a schedule that truly reflects your school’s vision. If you’re tired of last-minute chaos, endless tweaks, and staff confusion, this episode will change the way you see scheduling forever. It’s time to stop surviving the schedule and start using it to advance your 100% vision #LikeABuilder.
