Episode 003. Scenarios in School Sports. Propelling Athletic Programs to the Next Level @ Riverside High Walk Together Today

    • Education

Join us as in an "anomaly of a day" as our host Alexandra Valladares actually takes a moment to sit together at Riverside High with our special guest, Athletic Director Robert Duncan. Coach Duncan is a former All-American and Academic All-American center at Durham's own North Carolina Central University, who has invested his entire educational career at "The River."

Under the leadership of Principal Tonya Williams, Riverside High has embraced an effective model of shared leadership through the School Improvement Team (SIT) and has been implementing its newly developed  mission and vision.


Mission: Riverside High School welcomes, engages, exposes, and empowers a diverse community of learners to foster critical thinking and prepare students for lifelong learning and engaged global citizenship.
Vision: Riverside High School graduates will be self-reliant global citizens who make their mark as positive and contributing members of their communities.

In this episode, Coach Duncan, who serves as a member of the School Improvement Team, takes us behind the scenes of what it takes to build an athletics program as a new athletic director, from assessment of needs, to fund raising, to creating partnerships in the community, to developing support systems for the entire athletic department, and honoring the legacy of those who have come before you. This is part one in a two-part conversation, which continues in Episode 004.
