This week we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the simplest—but most powerful—things we do at Teachers Deserve It: designing plug-and-play tools that schools can use instantly to make professional development actually stick. In this episode, Rae shares the backstory of a tool created for one partner school that spread like wildfire when another district grabbed it, screenshot style, and ran with it. You’ll hear how small shifts in clarity can ripple out into smoother transitions, stronger para partnerships, and teachers who actually thank their administrators for PD. Plus, Rae breaks down why giving your staff ready-to-use systems is a sign of respect, not “hand-holding.” If you’ve ever wanted your PD days to spark real results without adding more to your plate, this episode is for you.
