When schools focus on what’s working and align around a shared vision, transformation becomes possible.

In this final installment in our National Principals Month series, Principal David Shaffer of Port Salerno Elementary shares how the AVID program has impacted his leadership and his school by providing structure, focus, and identity. 

David Shaffer and his team have used AVID not just as a program, but as a foundation for building schoolwide coherence and student agency. From “WICOR Wednesdays” to student-led collaboration, AVID structures help shift the cognitive load from teachers to students—giving learners ownership of their path and purpose.

At the heart of it all is a community-driven approach. As David explains, “It really takes that community to create the system.” His team’s grassroots efforts have improved academic outcomes and reshaped how students advocate for themselves—even long after they leave elementary school. This episode is a blueprint for schools seeking to embed AVID into their DNA while staying rooted in their local context and strengths.

Lessons from an Elementary Principal, with David Shaffer

Kids today are more than just digital natives, “They’re mobile first,” observes our guest, Alefiya Master—a former teacher and the founder and CEO of MAD-learn. “That’s the first device that they learn how to use before they get to a computer. So let’s use that hook. Let’s leverage that hook to enable them to come into the computer science world, come into the world of creating as opposed to just consuming.”

An introduction to computer science goes beyond opening up career opportunities for students. It helps them better understand the technology with which they interact on a daily basis, and it can open them up to a new world of creativity and problem-solving. These opportunities can serve as cornerstones in helping students develop their growth mindsets. Throughout this episode, we discuss how app development can be used as a way to hook students into computer science and help them develop transferable, lifelong skills.
