Transformational teaming requires a deep investment in people. Not all schools or organizations are willing to invest in their team through professional development, mentoring, and coaching. U Prep does! Each member of our leadership staff completes assessments, which allows us to learn each other’s styles and leverage our strengths. We share a common language that provides a guide to navigating through our vast differences and best utilize the strengths and gifts that each of our leaders brings. These assessments nurture self-awareness and are the first step in personal and professional development.

Our commitment to developing synergist teams reinforces our culture and is another defining difference at U Prep. Our annual Leadership Conference kicks off the new school year and serves as a reminder to everyone in the U of our academic vision and focus for the year. Our monthly Crew Zoom Meetings is where we gather as a whole to highlight the success of our Crew network-wide. Bi-weekly professional development days allow the Crew to sharpen their saw and return restored with new information, techniques, and energy to carry throughout each quarter. And our new Master Teachers Program provides U Prep teachers the opportunity to achieve mastery in their craft.

As the CEO of Detroit 90/90 and U Prep Schools, it’s a privilege to lead this incredible team that is highly committed to ensuring student success, strengthening school culture, and growing personally and professionally.
