What does it take to create a future-ready district—with results that actually stick?

In this strategy-rich episode of Brighter Together, Dr. Brett Geithman, Superintendent of Larkspur-Corte Madera School District, walks us through the design thinking and equity lens behind their layered Portrait of a Learner, Portrait of an Adult, and Portrait of a System.

He breaks down how Larkspur’s 2036 vision came to life: starting with people, embedding into systems, and anchoring decisions in core values. From budget redesign to staff development to intentional measurement, every move is built to last.

If you’re an educational leader tired of empty slogans and ready for real systems change, this is your blueprint.
